AP reports that in Seattle, Washington yesterday, 25 Somali Muslims who previously worked as drivers for Hertz Corp. at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport have filed a state court lawsuit charging religious discrimination. Hertz fired the drivers when they refused to clock out for their daily prayer breaks. As
previously reported, apparently Hertz originally agreed they would not need to clock out, but changed that policy when a number of the drivers failed to return promptly after their prayers.
