On Friday, the Supreme Court issued a ruling on religious freedom that could be another blow to California Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom as he faces a recall effort. The Court ordered Santa Clara County to allow churches to hold indoor worship services.
Last week, five churches in the county challenged the county’s public health orders which ban indoor church services, asking the Ninth Circuit for an emergency stay. When that effort failed, the churches applied for an emergency writ of injunction with Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan, as she is assigned to the West Coast for emergency motions. She told the county to issue a response and referred the case to the Supreme Court.
