Im not passing judgement yet, the remedy for discrimination is a lawsuit AFTER THE FACT. No one is saying in this decision that they dont have rights to religious exemptions, the ruling was whether or not the State of Maine could have an injunction against them for this action. I dont believe there is any law supporting an injunction, and nothing indicates the court will not support them once they have had an adverse employment action against them. Dont take every loss as a defeat, there is some legal maneuvers being made to try and set other precedents, not all of them will succeed. The IU case was dismissed because IU gave them all religious exemptions, so they no longer had standing to sue. The press reported this a defeat as well, just need someone without religious exemption to take a case to the supreme court. In the mean time plan on being out of work to stand up to tyranny, its not the end of the world. I'm prepared to be without a job because my Lord is the only one I need to impress with my actions.
Justice Barrett, joined by Kavanaugh, concurred in the denial of injunctive relief, noting that the injunction pending a cert petition is an extraordinary request that would require the High Court to rule on the merits before it had the opportunity for full briefing and argument.

They have not decided to take the case yet.

This is not a defeat.
