The American Center for Justice (ACJ) vehemently denounces the actions of a University of Kentucky police officer who coerced a Muslim woman into removing her headscarf. We emphasize that religious freedom encompasses the right to wear religious attire, such as the veil. Upholding these fundamental principles is of utmost importance to us.

We demand a thorough investigation into the incident and full transparency regarding the circumstances surrounding this unacceptable behavior. Such actions contradict the very essence of the Constitution, which safeguards religious freedoms.
