Joe Biden arguing on behalf of the Postal Service or Joe Biden and his administration
0:24
arguing on behalf of the Postal Service went to the Supreme Court in a case against a Pennsylvania
0:31
postal worker, a Christian man, who said that the United States Postal Service not allowing
0:37
him to take off on Sunday was against the law and it's violated his religious freedoms
0:45
Now what this man said was the Postal Service wanted him to deliver packages for Amazon
0:51
on Sundays and that the Postal Service said it would cause an undue hardship on them if
0:57
people were allowed to take off on Sundays because they wanted this Amazon contract
1:03
Well as it turns out the Supreme Court in an unanimous decision sided with the postal
1:09
worker 9-0 with the liberals and conservatives all joining together which is huge
1:16
That is as unequivocal a smackdown of the current law as you can possibly get
1:22
All nine justices. Here's what they were working with. The government wanted them to use a 1977, the year I was born, Supreme Court decision
1:32
that said that businesses had to accommodate religious observances for their workers unless
1:38
those religious observances caused an undue hardship on the company, i.e. made it harder
1:44
for the company to complete its goals and do its business. So the Supreme Court turned around, the postal worker said they shouldn't have that, you
1:54
should scrap that because it's not fair because any company at any time could say well this
1:58
is an undue hardship, we're not going to accommodate it. So the Supreme Court said, you know what, you're right, we're going to scrap this
2:05
So now that burden is off. This means that Christians, Jews, Muslims, whatever your religious belief is, on your
2:14
holiday you're allowed to take off from work and the business has to give you the day off
2:21
They have to allow you to observe your religious holiday or observance or whatever it is
2:27
The Sabbath is very important to both Jews and Christians. Jews celebrate it on Saturday, Christians celebrate it on Sunday, but it's a very important
2:36
day, it's supposed to be kept holy, and so a lot of people want to still observe that
2:42
Now some people will still work on the Sabbath, that's their prerogative, and you could do
2:47
so in a way that celebrates God, but the point is that's up to each individual person, not
2:53
to the businesses. Again, with the old decision at any point a business could say well we would take your
3:00
observance into consideration, but this causes an undue hardship so we're not going to do
3:04
it here. Well, that really gives the business all the power. The Supreme Court today struck that down and it makes me wonder if more religious questions
3:14
are brought before the Supreme Court, like baking a cake for a gay wedding if you're
3:18
a Christian baker and you don't want to do it, or anything like that, what this Supreme
3:23
Court will decide, because time and time again this particular Supreme Court comes down on
3:28
the side of religious freedom. Now you take this decision along with the decision it made earlier striking down affirmative
3:35
action in college universities and it's been a really rough day for Joe Biden, the White
3:41
House, and his cronies. So I want to know what you guys think
3:45
Is this fair to businesses? Is it fair to the workers? Let me know in the comments
