The Daily Mail – The Federal Aviation Administration launched an investigation into two airports over complaints of religious discrimination after Chick-fil-A was banned from the premises because of the company’s controversial LGBTQ views.
FAA officials are now working to determine whether the San Antonio and Buffalo Niagara International airports acted in a discriminatory way towards the Southern-Baptist-influenced fast-food chain.
“The Department of Transportation received complaints alleging discrimination by two airport operators against a private company due to the expression of the owner’s religious beliefs,” the FAA said in a statement. According to the agency, airports that are funded federally are forbidden from discriminating on the basis of religion.
