'This Council again rejected religious freedom and voted against people of faith,' San Antonio council member Greg Brockhouse said.
Chick-fil-A will remain blocked from doing business in the San Antonio International Airport, for now. The San Antonio City Council, which had already voted against having the fast-food restaurant in the city-run airport, brought its previous decision back to the agenda on Thursday, where it was once again voted down.
The council voted 6-4 vote in late March to keep the chicken restaurant out of the airport. Amid a backlash from some lawmakers in the state, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sent the city a letter, saying his office was investigating the matter. Paxton also called on U.S. Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao to look into any potential violations of federal laws or regulations.
Brockhouse said Thursday could have been a step toward righting a wrong, and not rejecting a company’s religious freedom.
