Andrea Butler: St. Louis Schools Fired 100 Teachers for Their Faith — Now a Federal Jury Has Made Them Pay for It

from The Marc Cox Morning Show

The Marc Cox Morning Show exposes one of the most infuriating religious liberty stories playing out right in our own backyard. Andrea Butler of the Beckett Fund for Religious Liberty joins to break down how St. Louis Public Schools granted every single medical exemption request from the COVID vaccine mandate — then turned around and denied every single one of the nearly 200 religious exemption requests, firing or forcing over 100 teachers onto unpaid leave for nothing more than their faith. A federal jury already sided with the teachers and awarded four million dollars — but the district is appealing, trying to wipe out that victory. Kim gets personal, revealing she lost fifteen thousand dollars and nearly her career fighting the same battle at her own employer. Constitutional rights do not disappear during a public health emergency — and the Beckett Fund is making sure the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals never forgets it. If you believe faith, family, and freedom still mean something in this country, this conversation will have your blood boiling and your fist in the air.
