Robert Barnes: "Here is Mayor of my hometown in Chattanooga threatening residents if they attend Easter services inside their own cars. This violates First Amendment rights, which the Mayor, as a lawyer (his granddaddy got power when he represented mobbed-up Teamsters) knows. Time to sue?" (twitter.com)

Just a reminder there is no for federal law. This is a state issue. Here is the state bill of rights.

Section 3. That all men have a natural and indefeasible right to worship Almighty God according to the dictates of their own conscience; that no man can of right be compelled to attend, erect, or support any place of worship, or to maintain any minister against his consent; that no human authority can, in any case whatever, control or interfere with the rights of conscience; and that no preference shall ever be given, by law, to any religious establishment or mode of worship.
