Congressman Harris Praises Supreme Court Decision Upholding Religious Liberty

“Supreme Court once again highlights that the United States is a beacon of freedom for the world”

Washington, D.C. –
Congressman Andy Harris, M.D., released on the following statement on the Supreme Court’s decision that upholds the freedom of religion in the United States:

"While in Ukraine during WWII, my mother saw churches burned by government agents because there was no freedom of religion. The Supreme Court's decision today upholds that fundamental freedom. By upholding the freedom of religion of business owners, the Supreme Court once again highlights that the United States is a beacon of freedom for the world."

Congressman Harris is the son of immigrants who came to the United States after WWII. His mother came from Ukraine and his father from Hungary.

Alito closed the opinion by saying that this was NOT based on the argument of the first amendment.
