ACLU Files Supreme Court Brief Opposing Disability Discrimination by Religious School

WASHINGTON–(ENEWSPF)–August 9, 2011.  The American Civil Liberties Union filed a friend-of-the-court brief today in a Supreme Court case arguing that churches do not have the right to discriminate based on non-religious grounds. The case was originally filed by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on behalf of a teacher of primarily secular subjects who claims she was fired by a religious school after taking a leave of absence to treat her narcolepsy.
