Supreme Court

This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.

Two recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions impact religious exemptions and free expression at work.

Mike Thompson is an associate professor of criminal justice at the University of Sioux Falls. He discusses expressing your opinion at work vs. discriminating against your customers. He also dives into religious accommodation vs. placing a burden on your co-workers.

303 Creative vs. Elenis featured a Colorado web designer who argued that the state could not force her to serve LGBTQ clients and express something she doesn't believe.

Groff vs. DeJoy included a UPS worker who said working on a Sunday violates his religious beliefs.
