WASHINGTON (CNS) — The Supreme Court June 30 rejected a challenge to New York’s vaccine mandate for health care workers with no religious exemption.
By denying the appeal, the justices left a lower court ruling in place that rejected the health care workers’ claim that the COVID-19 vaccine mandate violates a constitutional prohibition against religious discrimination.
The justices did not explain why they chose not to take up this case, but the dissenters, Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch, did.
A dissent written by Thomas, and joined by Alito and Gorsuch, said: “The New York mandate includes a medical exemption but no religious exemption, even though ‘allowing a health care worker to remain unvaccinated undermines the state’s asserted public health goals equally whether that worker happens to remain unvaccinated for religious reasons or medical ones.'”
Thomas also said that by taking this case, the court could “give much-needed guidance.”
The order was issued on the last day of the court’s term. The high court also sent some cases back to lower courts due to its recent rulings on abortion and gun rights.
Last December, the Supreme Court similarly declined to temporarily block the vaccine requirement for New York health care workers and the same three justices dissented.
The state’s mandate was first imposed last August and had allowed exceptions for medical reasons or religious objections, but the religious exemption was later removed.
Initial lawsuits filed by New York nurses, doctors and other health care workers said their religious reasons for not wanting the COVID-19 vaccinations were due to a link to cells from aborted fetuses that were used in the development or testing of the vaccines.

So religious freedom doesn’t exist apparently.
Judicial Tyranny.
The DoI disagrees.
Kavanaugh?
Barrett?
Out to lunch with John Roberts???
The sheeple need to learn obedience.
It is not true obedience when you obey reasonable laws and rules.
It is true obedience when you obey insane ones.
:-(
Ping.
Time to protest I guess
Basically SCROTUS said we wont kill you before you are born, but we will allow you to be killed under the guise of helping you (the vax death shots) and you cant refuse them.
The solution involves some kind of solvent.
Anticipate a a shortage of health care workers unlike anything ever known before in our lifetimes.
Sure looks like it.
From the article:
“In response, the state’s brief said the vaccines do not contain aborted fetal cells but that an abortion-derived cell line was used during the research and development of Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.
It added that the “use of fetal cell lines for testing is common, including for the rubella vaccination, which New York’s health care workers are already required to take.””

So I guess if you think an mRNA vaccine is suicide, that’s not considered a religious objection???
COPD,weakened immune system,diabetes just being a few of the possible dangers.
So go ahead,guys...tell me I'm an AOC loving a swamp creature.I've heard it before!
Sometime these cases are not taken up because of fault with the filing, if you are going to make it to SCOTUS you better have EVERY I dotted and EVERY T crossed correctly if not they will throw the case back!!
I could u derstand your reasoning IF IN FACT vaxed people were NOT able to spread the virus HOWEVER it has been recently PROVEN that vaxed people are catching AND spreading this virus MORE than the unvaxed that is a fact!
Unless the Entire Judiciary is Mandated to take the JAB, Do they or should they even have Standing to hear the case? and should it just be ignored until they do? And what about CONgress?
And the vaxxed people are shedding the spike protein too.
“Kavanaugh?
Barrett?
Out to lunch with John Roberts???”
Most days, I think.
“....tell me I’m an AOC loving a swamp creature....”
And a fascist one at that.
I don’t think there should be a religious exemption either.
No one should be required to have the government inject you with experimental drugs. See Nuremburg.
