The U.S. Supreme Court agreed Friday to allow nonprofit religious organizations to once again challenge the Affordable Care Act.

The Washington Post reports that the court accepted seven cases, including challenges from organizations such as Little Sisters of the Poor and the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Washington. The groups are arguing that religious institutions and charities should be exempt from the contraceptive requirement of the Affordable Care Act, commonly referred to as Obamacare.

The cases are somewhat of a follow-up to last year's ruling, in which it was determined that closely held corporations could refuse to provide contraception to employees on religious grounds.

The Obama administration has said that religious organizations are allowed to opt-out of mandatory contraception by filing and reporting their religious objections to the government. The insurer will then cover the costs of the employer's contraception.

"All plaintiffs must do to opt out is express what they believe and seek what they want via a letter or two­-page form," wrote U.S. Circuit Judge Cornelia Pillard in response to the case. "Religious nonprofits that opt out are excused from playing any role in the provision of contraception services, and they remain free to condemn contraception in the clearest terms."

The groups say that this accommodation is not good enough, as it would make them complicit in the contraception coverage. Instead, the groups are seeking the same full exemption extended to churches and entirely religious organizations.

"The Little Sisters spend their lives taking care of the elderly poor -- that is work our government should applaud, not punish," said senior counsel Mark Rienzi of the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, according to CNN. "The Little Sisters should not have to fight their own government to get an exemption it has already given to thousands of other employers, including Exxon, Pepsi Cola Bottling Company, and Boeing. Nor should the government be allowed to say that the Sisters aren't 'religious enough' to merit the exemption that churches and other religious ministries have received."
