Religious objections to vaccines are not a license to kill, LevinsonJessica writes.
Fast forward to 1990,the government can regulate conduct — in that case ingesting peyote — without an exception for an individual’s religious beliefs. Legally, the key is to make sure the law is neutral and generally applicable. This essentially means the law applies to everyone who engages in that conduct, regardless of their religious beliefs.
So 31 years ago, the Supreme Court concluded once again that it is OK in certain circumstances to burden the free exercise of religion.in response to the Supreme Court’s 1990 decision and in an effort to provide more protection for individuals under the First Amendment. However, it remains true that the government can pass neutral, generally applicable laws where it has very good reason for the law and where there really is not a better way of trying to accomplish the government’s objectives.
Mandatory vaccination laws are just that. On their face, they apply to all students, employees or customers. They are motivated by valid health and safety concerns, not religious animus, and they should be found to be constitutional.The constitutional protection for the free exercise of religion enshrined in the First Amendment isn’t the only law to consider when talking about vaccine mandates and religious exemptions.
