On December 31, 1998, the *Christian Science Monitor* published an article on the accommodation for Muslim prayer that thecity of Denver provided for Muslim taxi and airport-shuttle driversat Denver International Airport. Denver moved a glass shelter to thegrounds of the international airport to provide a warm and dry spacefor Muslim drivers to pray at the airport. Though, the shelter isopen to use by all drivers at the airport as a shelter. Around thecountry, lawsuits claiming religious discrimination in the work placeare on the rise, from 1,192 in 1991 to 1,786 in 1998. RobertoCorrada, a law professor at the University of Denver, stated that,"in the last decade or so, religion has been more a part of thepolitical landscape, and a lot more people in minority religions arenow claiming their rights and asking for accommodations."
