Supreme Court rules against Cuomo's coronavirus limits -- with Barrett playing key role
Chief Justice Roberts sided with the court's liberals in the dissenting opinion By David Aaro The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday night blocked New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo from reimposing strict attendance caps at worship services in areas hit hard by the novel coronavirus. The court ruled 5-4 to bar Cuomo from enforcing his Oct. 6 "Cluster Initiative" against houses of worship that sued to challenge the restrictions. The order was also the first in which Justice Amy Coney Barrett played a decisive role. Barrett, who was President Trump's third Supreme Court nominee, joined the court Oct. 27, after winning Senate confirmation following the Sept. 18 death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Meanwhile, Chief Justice John Roberts joined the court's liberal wing in the dissenting opinion, which stated the court had acted rashly. Cuomo's initiative had created color-coded limits on mass gatherings and business operations, in an effort to stem the outbreak in New York City areas that were experiencing a surge in cases, according to Bloomberg News. It was aimed at worship services at some synagogues and Roman Catholic churches in parts of Brooklyn and Queens, Bloomberg reported. In the hardest-hit areas, which were designated red zones, the state limited attendance in houses of worship to 25% of their capacity or 10 people, whichever is fewer. The majority said his limits violated the First Amendment's protection of the free exercise of religion. Justice Neil Gorsuch, in the concurring opinion, said Cuomo had treated religious activities less favorably than nonreligious ones, according to the New York Times. "It is time - past time - to make plain that, while the pandemic poses many grave challenges, there is no world in which the Constitution tolerates color-coded executive edicts that reopen liquor stores and bike shops but shutter churches, synagogues, and mosques," wrote Gorsuch, who was also named to the court by President Trump. "So, at least according to the Governor, it may be unsafe to go to church, but it is always fine to pick up another bottle of wine, shop for a new bike, or spend the afternoon exploring your distal points and meridians," he continued, according to a tweet from The Economist correspondent Steven Mazie. "Who knew public health would so perfectly align with secular convenience?" The ruling was seen as a reversal from earlier actions taken during the pandemic this year by the high court in response to state restrictions on organized religion, reports said. The justices previously refused to lift restrictions on churches in California and Nevada. ------------------------- The REAL truth is....both of the forum idiots are OWNED. -BOTH of them have no clue who their owner is. -They are both card carrying narcissists. ^These are PROVED facts. |

Churches can't get by without that collection basket being passed.
It's all about the money. Parishners die? No big deal. Their worldly assets go to the church. It's all about the money. |

>>> "The majority said his limits violated the First Amendment's protection of the free exercise of religion." <<<
So, the foregoing makes it all very clear; there is nothing, short of Marshall Law, that can limit and/or restrict our Constitution. Even if it was Ebola. It would be a very "slippery slope". ------------------------- Dora Hates You |

Of course they do, every medial specialist in the world says so. Not wearing them is why the virus won't go away and it's why businesses continue to suffer. Rural areas of the country think just as you do and they are paying the price. ------------------------- I was right. |

This Catholic Archdiocese of Brooklyn & Queens - the same organization to file suit - paid out $27.5 Million in child sex abuse settlements in 2018.
As of 2018, $1.29 Billon has been awarded in jury awards, settlements and legal fees by the Catholic Church to more than 1,840 victims. Cuomo should get an award for protecting citizens. |

I love how you race in to defend pedophiles and their enablers. The other party in the case before the Supreme Court was a conservative Orthodox Jewish Synogogue that supports arranged marriages and forces women to wear clothing that can only show hands and faces. Kid touchers and subjugation of women. That's what you support. |
