The Oregon Court of Appeals heard oral arguments on Thursday in a case you may recognize, Klein v. Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries. I originally reported on this case in 2018, when Aaron and Melissa Klein asked the Supreme Court to hear the lawsuit that caused them to lose their business and incur a wrongful, hefty fine based on their religion.

In June of 2019, the Supreme Court granted the Kleins’ petition, although they declined to hear the case. Instead, they vacated the decision of the Oregon Court of Appeals and sent the case back to it to hear again with the court’s decision in Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission in mind. Masterpiece, of course, won national attention for the dispute it entailed between a Christian baker who refused to bake a cake for a gay wedding in accordance with his religious beliefs.
