Louisiana Passes Religious Freedom Act

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS
The Louisiana legislature has passed and sent to Gov. Bobby Jindal for his signature SB 606, the Preservation of Religious Freedom Act. As reported by the Baton Rouge Advocate, final enactment came yesterday as the state Senate voted 30-6 to concur in House changes. (Vote history). The bill provides that state and local governments must show both a compelling interest and use the least restrictive means before they may substantially burden a person's exercise of religion, even through a facially neutral rule or a rule of general applicability. Opponents say the law will open floodgates for costly lawsuits.
