Christian bakers bludgeoned with state 'hostility' return to high court
State fined them $135,000 for refusing to violate faith
Bakers Aaron and Melissa Klein, who were forced to close their "Sweet Cakes by Melissa" when the state of Oregon unleashed a barrage of state "hostility" at them over their Christian faith, are back at the state Supreme Court.
The state forced the closure of their bakery operations when they declined to create a custom cake for a same-sex duo, citing the fact that being forced to create a message that violates their faith would conflict with the First Amendment.
First Liberty said its petition to the Oregon Supreme Court is asking for a reversal of a lower court decision that forced the closure.
That happened when a state agency, the Bureau of Labor and Industries, fined the couple $135,000 for their alleged "discrimination."
