Tennessee's Religious Freedom Restoration Act and its stifling effect on local government police powers

The RFRA applied a strict scrutiny test on federal, state and local governmental entities when a petitioner claims a violation of the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment. This scrutiny test requires a court to determine whether the petitioner's claim involves a sincere religious belief and whether the government action is a substantial burden on the person's ability to act on that belief.
