I saw this posted on Wackywet, maybe interesting someone:
Muslim Woman Wins Compensation
A Muslim woman has settled with the City of Omaha, Nebraska, over a discrimination lawsuit against a public swimming pool. Lubna Hussein filed suit last June after she was prevented from entering the city pool facility twice in 2003 because she was fully dressed and donning a head scarf as required by her religious beliefs. At the time, swimsuits were required.
Hussein and the American Civil Liberties Union argued that her religious and civil rights were violated by the swimsuits-only policy. The city amended its rule to allow pool dress code variances on the basis of religious and medical needs. Hussein also received about $5,000 as part of her settlement.
