Gov. Rick Perry today released the following statement following the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling on Burwell v. Hobby Lobby.

"Today's decision is further proof that Obamacare represents one of the greatest governmental overreaches in our nation's history. Religious freedom is an intrinsic part of being American, and the Supreme Court's decision reaffirms that the government cannot mandate that anyone operate in a fashion counter to their most deeply-felt principles."
