    That whole “it only applies to Congress” angle is malarkey.

    303 Creative v. Elenis: The 1st Amendment bars Colorado from forcing businesses to provide service that goes against their religious beliefs.

    Shurtleff v. City of Boston: The City of Boston could not reject flying a Christian flag when it had open many other groups to fly different flags for various occasions.

    Kennedy v. Bremerton School District: A school board wrongfully terminated a coach for praying on the field.

    These are all recent cases too. Of course, that doesn’t mean they won’t find some different bullshit reason to say this is fine.

      Man if they rule that states can discriminate based on religion, I look forward to all the left leaning states going in the total opposite direction.

        They’ll just agree with the lie that our country was founded on Judeo-Christian values and anything Christian is simply embracing our history.
