Verdict

It’s all about stigma. Philadelphia wants to enforce its laws against sexual orientation discrimination, while an agency that contracts with the city wants an exemption, rooted in free exercise of religion, so it does not have to give foster children to same-sex couples. The stigma of racial discrimination was raised at the argument before the Supreme Court in Fulton v. City of Philadelphia, which took place on November 4, 2020. The question is whether the Justices will see sexual orientation discrimination as similarly stigmatic to racial discrimination, or if they will think it is a good thing protected by religious freedom.
