>comparing it to the vaccine is a shitty argument Tell that to anyone who was denied a religious accommodation for the vaccine mandates. There are explicit protections for people to be free from religious discrimination. So literally submitting any documentation of a sincerely held religious belief should have protected people from being fired. It didn't for hundreds of thousands/millions of people. Now compare this to: the government alleges employee has an illegal weapon. The government has records of the employee buying an illegal weapon. The employee can't document chain of custody of the illegal weapon being sold, transferred, or surrendered to the government. Also it is an at will employment state (as 50 of 50 are)* so we don't need cause or proof and can terminate the employee for any or no reason. >muh wrongful termination Good luck with that, homie. *Every state is an at will employment state. 5 states don't even have exemptions for violations of public policy.
