As three churches filed an appeal with the 5th Circuit (full text of Emergency Motion) after a Texas federal district court refused to enjoin a FEMA Policy Guideline that bars disaster relief grants for religious facilities, two Florida synagogues filed suit seeking to invalidate the same FEMA regulation.

They contend that FEMA’s policy violates their rights under the 1st Amendment and RFRA.
