A U.S. appeals court on Friday revived lawsuits by a Christian medical ministry and a Catholic school in Michigan seeking to block the state from enforcing anti-discrimination laws against them for seeking to hire and serve only members of their faiths. A unanimous three-judge panel, opens new tab of the Cincinnati-based 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Christian Healthcare Centers and Sacred Heart of Jesus, a school in Grand Rapids, had shown a “credible threat” of facing legal claims from the state given its history of actively enforcing laws banning discrimination, including bias against LGBT people. Both plaintiffs say they want to post job ads online that explicitly seek Christian workers and require applicants to sign statements of faith and agree with certain positions, including opposition to gay marriage, using preferred gender pronouns, and gender-affirming care.
