“Religious liberty is best secured when accommodations are tailored, fair, and sustainable,” said BJC General Counsel Holly Hollman. “Today’s decision should be understood in that light.”
“We must not accept a government that uses religion and ethnicity as proxies for threat,” said BJC Executive Director Amanda Tyler in response to the new travel ban. “Religious freedom means freedom for all — not just those favored by those in power.”
Hollman: This outcome “ensures our public institutions remain open to all, not captured by any one religious mission.”
“If the Court compels states to fund religious education through charter schools, it will entangle government with religion in ways the Constitution was designed to prevent,” said BJC General Counsel Holly Hollman.
Today, we mourn with people around the world the passing of Pope Francis, a spiritual leader whose voice reflected a deep commitment to human dignity, justice, and compassion.
