Social Justice Week 2019: Research Session 4

Negative Impacts of Expanding Public Employee Religious Accommodation

Negative Impacts of Expanding Public Employee Religious Accommodation 
Jim Szymalak, Political Science and Public Administration

Most citizens generally support legal protections for religious expression, but often this support is without a full understanding of what constitutes religion. For example, few realize that veganism, or even white supremacist teachings, have been legally recognized as religion. Current efforts to expand religious accommodation could have serious negative impacts on the rights of third parties, and this session briefly addresses these challenges within the context of government services.
