San Francisco: Six former employees of the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) train system have been awarded over $1 million each, and BART must now pay a combined $7.8 million. The six former employees objected to BART’s COVID ‘vaccine’ mandate on religious grounds and were fired. The plaintiffs’ lawyer said that employers will have to pay a price for their intolerance and bigotry against religious people who rejected the COVID jab and wanted to be reasonably accommodated.

A federal jury has sided with fired BART workers who sued the agency claiming they lost their jobs over a COVID vaccine mandate.

There are six of them total in the lawsuit and each will receive more than $1 million.

The employees claimed religious exemptions to the vaccine mandate but say they were not accommodated by the transit agency, and subsequently lost their job.

BART did initially grant vaccine exemptions, but the plaintiffs argued they weren’t accommodated. An accommodation could have meant that they were able to work from home or get tested regularly for COVID. They argued none of that happened and they lost their jobs.

In total, BART must now pay a combined $7.8 million to all six former employees.

BART is a transit agency that is already between $350 and $400 million in the red, but BART’s board of directors did vote eight to one for the vaccine mandate in 2021.

BART has not commented on Wednesday’s decision.

Disengaging Entirely From the United Nations Debacle

In order to leave the UN, a letter from the head of state must be sent to the UN secretary general to withdraw membership. She said in Trump’s first term, he did not remove the US from the WHO as claimed.

More too-rare good news from court judgements, although personally I feel that the amount awarded is over the top.
