The Wild Hunt (https://wildhunt.org/tag/employment)
A federal settlement protecting Christian employers and a Southern Baptist appeal to the Justice Department raise a broader question: Will the government’s expanding religious-liberty framework offer minority faiths the same protections in the workplace?
