FFLC Settles COVID Lawsuits Against Kaiser Permanente
The lawsuit filed by the Founding Freedoms Law Center (FFLC) last year against Kaiser Permanente on behalf of three women fired because of their religious objections to taking the COVID-19 shot has now been settled for all three plaintiffs. While the terms of the settlement are confidential, FLLC and our clients are pleased with the results.

Each of the women - Marisol Gates, Moira David, and Zena Reeves - is a faithful adherent to Protestant or Catholic religious beliefs, which prevented them from taking the COVID shot that was mandated by their former employer. It should have been easy for Kaiser Permanente to accommodate their faith as required by state and federal law, as they each worked from home and posed no risk to their employer. Nevertheless, their religious accommodation requests were denied, and they were fired.
With their case now settled, our clients are able to finally put this behind them and move forward. FFLC was honored to represent them, and we stand ready to represent others who have faced unlawful discrimination because of their faith.
