Hobby Lobby Is Only the Beginning, Says Professor Horwitz in New York Times Op-Ed

July 1, 2014

Professor Paul Horwitz recently wrote in The New York Times that Americans should expect many more Hobby Lobbies.

“A country that cannot even agree on the idea of religious accommodation, let alone on what terms, is unlikely to agree on what to do next,” wrote the Gordon Rosen Professor of Law and author of First Amendment Institutions. “A country in which many states cannot manage to pass basic anti-discrimination laws covering sexual orientation is one whose culture wars may be beyond the point of compromise.” For more, read “Hobby Lobby Is Only the Beginning.”
