A public school district in the U.S. must pay a Muslim teacher tens of thousands of dollars and establish a religious accommodation training program for refusing to let the instructor take three weeks off to make a pilgrimage to Mecca.
The settlement marks the conclusion of the first lawsuit filed by Obama’s Department of Justice (DOJ) as part of a pilot program designed to ensure “vigorous enforcement” of civil rights in the workplace. “Employees should not have to choose between practicing their religion and their jobs,” said Thomas Perez, the open borders advocate Obama appointed as Assistant Attorney General for the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division.
Anyone else wish obama would be as aggressive in defending American borders as he was in defending civil rights?
The DOJ spoke. Yet Catholics must take a personal day for Good Friday if school is in session.
Makes ya wonder sometimes.
I have never had school on Good Friday growing up. It is a state holiday here. Besides that If I read the link correctly the school board denied the teacher an unpaid leave of absence.

You actually read the facts of the case? Oh, the shame!

Hey quit it! Don't let facts get in the way of a good union bashing rant.
That was my thought too, unless she was a year round employee--some districts have teaching staff that work 12 months/year because of summer school.
