evidence: But the bill has come under attack, including from those who believe it violates religious freedoms. Chick-Fil-A’s closed-on-Sunday policy is attributed to its founder’s Christian faith. [...] "This is war," Graham posted to X. "If this goes forward, I will be introducing legislation withholding federal funds from any city or state that requires @ChickfilA to stay open on Sunday. The founders of Chick-fil-A made a decision early on to close on Sunday, consistent with their faith. For any government to try to reverse this decision flies in the face of who we are as Americans. ... New York is off base and their actions will not go unanswered." [...] "Applegreen’s portfolio of companies include Chick-fil-A, which by company policy is closed on Sundays, and which has already opened at seven service areas. While there is nothing objectionable about a fast food restaurant closing on a particular day of the week, service areas dedicated to travelers is an inappropriate location for such a restaurant. Publicly owned service areas should use their space to maximally benefit the public."
