19 AGs back Missouri college's religious liberty case against Biden administration

(1/1)

Free Vulcan:
The U.S. Supreme Court hasn’t agreed to hear a case involving a private Missouri college’s challenge to a Biden administration ruling, but Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey and 18 other attorneys general filed a brief supporting the school.

College of the Ozarks sued the Biden administration in 2021 after an executive order banned housing discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

The institution and the Alliance Defending Freedom filed suit on the grounds the order forced religious schools to violate their views by prohibiting same-sex dormitories, including rules allowing a transgender person who identifies as female to live in a female residence hall.

Bailey’s brief urges the court to take the case and contends the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development unlawfully declared the Fair Housing Act prohibits schools from having dormitories limited to a single biological sex.
