A church in Maine is asking the Supreme Court to block the state from enforcing or reinstating any Covid-related restrictions that the house of worship says would violate its religious liberty rights under the Constitution
The petition highlights the emerging Delta variant, and the church's fear that it will trigger new statewide restrictions. It is likely to restart disputes between states trying to fight Covid and houses of worship who say the restrictions violate religious liberty rights. Such disputes had simmered down at the high court after the vaccine was made widely available.
Since the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the justices have often sided with houses of worship in similar disputes.'I don't feel any fear going out.'

Janet Mills that they say are discriminatory and unconstitutional.
