just taking a flip through the bill, and the coverage around it, it would seem as though a law forcing somebody to remove their hijab before they can get on a bus would clearly be too much, whereas a law banning the display of religious symbols by counter employees at government service kiosks is really long overdue (i can go to a different grocery store if i don't want to deal with it, but i can't go to a different government), and a law banning the display of religious symbols by teachers would be in a grey area that a judge would really need to weigh in on.

it ought to be up to the courts to sort this through.
