Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993  

Definición

  • Congress adopted the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) of 1993 to override the Supreme Court decision in Employment Division, Department of Human Resources of Oregon v. Smith (1990) and provide greater protection under the First Amendment free exercise clause. In City of Boerne v. Flores (1997), the Court struck down the provisions of the RFPA as they applied to the states. [Source: Encyclopedia of the First Amendment; Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993]
