Hopefully the first in a long line of litigation.

What companies did to enable the heavy hammer of government to violate civil rights was unconscionable.

Next up, private employers of all stripes getting sued for violations of ADA by treating unjabbed employees differently than jabbed employees (e.g., masks, tests, distancing, etc.).
