In a significant victory for religious liberty advocates, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit has ruled in favor of Valerie Kloosterman, a physician assistant fired by University of Michigan Health-West in 2021 after she declined to support gender-transition procedures and pronoun usage that conflicted with her Christian beliefs.
“Today’s decision is a reckoning for institutions that discriminate and punish caring people of faith like Valerie Kloosterman,” said Kayla Toney, counsel at First Liberty Institute, one of the firms representing Kloosterman. “It was intolerant of University of Michigan Health to fire Valerie because of her religious beliefs, and now the Sixth Circuit has recognized that they cannot avoid accountability by hiding the case in arbitration.”
