The lawsuit says the city violated their rights as a religious group by "excluding disfavored minority faiths" from giving an invocation at the start of meetings.

The group says more than 50 local religious groups have given invocations in front of the City Council since the Satanic Temple Illinois first inquired about giving one in December 2019.
