Court axes religious freedom challenge to New York state vax mandate
The New York Post ^ | October 29, 2021 | By Bernadette Hogan and Patrick Reilly

Posted on 10/30/2021 8:01:40 AM PDT by jkid2

A federal appeals court struck down a temporary injunction on Friday that had New York State health care workers able to seek a religious exemption to avoid getting their COVID-19 vaccinations.

Three judges from the US Court of Appeals Second Circuit sided with New York State’s requirement that all health care workers must receive a COVID-19 vaccination regardless of religious beliefs or face termination.

Gov. Kathy Hochul chimed in on the ruling.

“On Day One, I pledged as Governor to battle this pandemic and take bold action to protect the health of all New Yorkers,” Hochul said in a statement.

“I commend the Second Circuit’s findings affirming our first-in-the-nation vaccine mandate, and I will continue to do everything in my power to keep New Yorkers safe.”

These people are demonically evil. I am a city worker myself and I will probably be out of a job soon because I don't want to take this forced experimental jab. My wife is also a Healthcare worker who just got a religious excemption and may lose her job as well because of this ruling. The only thing sustain us is the Lord in this madness.

There really is only one way left to make things right in this country. I don’t know what the hell we are waiting for.

Refusal to acknowledge naturally acquired immunity is criminal.

Don’t expect the courts to rule for liberty.

They are there to protect Fedzilla, not the citizens.

So,you see you terrorist religious people? If the government demands that you receive injections of pure aborted baby cells, in the future, you have no religious right to refuse, and you Must take it, because government is higher than God./ s

Why does anyone “need” a religious exemption “granted” by the govt? I know, rhetorical. Still thinking the “Because I don’t want it!” reason is all that should be needed. 😈🐂💨💩

NYS, like Maine, got rid of religious exemptions to vaccinations back in 2019.

Interesting timing, eh?

Got some questions for Hochul: What percentage of NYS’s cases are nosocomial? Are vaxxed healthcare workers still being tested regularly? If not, why not? Are you turning NYS’s hospitals into killing fields?

You can rest assured that the Lord is listening; one of only four sins that cry out to Heaven for vengeance is to deprive someone of their just wages.

The First Amendment goes down for the count. These Dems really have no shame, nor limits.

I could have easily got the religious exemption but opted for “I don’t want it”. Lost my job. But friends who did take the RE are asked all sorts of personal questions. HIPPA be damned.

Thankfully retired but still wondering how long before they drill down to us with some sort of coercion. It’s almost like they can’t be trusted. Best of luck if you’re looking.
