More Legal Shenanigans from the Biden Administration’s Department of Education

Among the foremost threats to individual freedom in America is the abusive and oftentimes lawless behavior of federal administrative agencies, whose vast armies of overpaid bureaucrats remain unaccountable for their excesses.

Among the most familiar examples of that bureaucratic abuse is the Department of Education (DOE).  Recall, for instance, the United States Supreme Court’s humiliating rebuke last year of the Biden DOE’s effort to shift hundreds of billions of dollars of student debt from the people who actually owed them onto the backs of American taxpayers.

A Pennsylvania woman is suing her employer, Heritage Valley Beaver Hospital, claiming the hospital failed to make reasonable accommodations to protect her from perfume fragrances.

Amy Feezle was hired by the hospital in September 2003. Feezle says she has a disability that causes her to become ill in the presence of perfume, and she has tried for years to get the hospital to recognize her disability and comply with the Americans With Disabilities Act. Heritage Valley counters that it provided scent-free cleaning products to be used in rooms to accommodate her disability. Yet, Feezle alleges the facility failed to properly instruct its employees to use the special cleaners and failed to post "no perfume" signs to warn other employees of her disability.

Amy Feezle is seeking injunctive relief compelling Heritage Valley to accommodate her perfume disability, actual losses in wages and benefits, punitive damages for the facility’s “willful, deliberate, malicious, and outrageous conduct,” along with legal fees.
