The justices refused to apply the rationale from their decision in 2020 that allowed #Muslim men to sue over their inclusion on the FBI’s no-fly list under a sister statute, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act [ #RFRA ].

The #DOJ, which argued against the plaintiffs in the no-fly list case in #Trump’s first Republican admin, had sided with Landor.
