Supreme Court Says No Religious Exemption from Covid Vaccination for N.Y. Health Workers

WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court turned down emergency requests by New York healthcare workers for a religious exemption from state requirements to vaccinate against Covid-19. A federal appeals court in New York previously denied the workers’ requests.

The court denied the requests in brief written orders. As is typical for such emergency actions, the majority didn’t explain its thinking. Three conservative justices—Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch—said they would have allowed the exemptions.

In October, the court denied a similar application from Maine healthcare workers seeking exemption from their state’s vaccination requirements, which lower courts had rejected. The same three conservatives dissented.

As in the Maine case, the New York applicants in separate lawsuits argued that they were entitled to a religious exception because state rules exempted a different category of covered workers: individuals who could suffer adverse health consequences, such as an allergic reaction, from the vaccine.

In the New York suits, nurses and other healthcare workers based their refusal to vaccinate on a religious objection to abortion. The workers believe “abortion-derived fetal cell lines” were used in testing, developing or producing the vaccine, one suit said. Neither lower courts nor the state have questioned the workers “sincerity or religiosity,” the brief said.-- excerpt, rest at link above --

I am planning on voting for Louie Gohmert.

He will ram the Constitution down the throats of any who try to usurp it.

I love Louis Gohmert but am not in the habit of firing people for doing a great job and I think Ken Paxton has done that. I will be supporting his re-election.

I will let you know, @Isailedaway

Is this one other thing Louie plans on doing as AG? He cannot accomplish much in his present position of the minority.

A very few congressional leaders have recognized this Fauci-promoted national disaster. Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert says, “Fauci needs to be held responsible for the deaths that are being created by the things he’s foisting on the American people.”

That would be great. Very few of our pols are talking about doing the right thing here, so this is refreshing if so.
