Show notes:
In the first segment, our panelists discuss a proposed New York bill requiring restaurants at state highway rest areas to operate seven days a week, potentially targeting Chick-fil-A’s practice of closing on Sundays. This measure reflects ongoing political battles surrounding the company’s conservative Christian values and past controversies.
In the second segment of the show, we explore the court case Shlomo Hyman v. Rosenbaum Yeshiva of North Jersey. The case examines whether the ministerial exception applies when a rabbi sues an Orthodox Jewish school for defamation after being dismissed for violating religious conduct laws.
