OPINION AND ORDER Pro se Plaintiff Enock Nyamoti sues Defendants the Mount Sinai Hospital (“Mount Sinai”); NYC Health + Hospitals (“NYC Health”); and the Physician Affiliate Group of New York (“PAGNY”) on the ground that Defendants sought to compel Plaintiff to get vaccinated against COVID-19 despite his request for a religious exemption. The amended complaint asserts that Defendants violated a court order in another matter. It also asserts a cause of action under 42 U.S.C. §1983 that Defendants violated the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment. Defendants NYC Health and PAGNY move to dismiss the amended complaint as unripe. That motion is denied. Defendant Mount Sinai moves to dismiss the amended complaint for failure to state a claim. That motion is granted. I. Background The following background comes from the allegations in the amended complaint, which “are assumed to be true.” Hamilton v. Westchester Cnty., 3 F.4th 86, 90-91 (2d Cir. 2021). A. Factual Background The amended complaint alleges that Plaintiff Enock Nyamoti is a registered nurse anesthetist affiliated with the Mount Sinai Hospital and the Physician Affiliate Group of New York. (See Dkt. No. 12 (“Am. Compl.”) 1.) He works at an NYC HHC Hospital in Elmhurst, Queens as well as the Jacobi Medical Center. (See Am. Compl. 3.) The amended complaint alleges that after the imposition of “The Vaccine Mandate,” Plaintiff “attempted to obtain a religious exemption from his hospital, based on [his] religious beliefs.” (See Am. Compl. 4.) Specifically, Plaintiff asserts that he “cannot consent to be inoculated, ‘continuously’ or otherwise, with vaccines that were tested, developed or produced with fetal cells…derived from procured abortions.” (Am. Compl. 5.) Plaintiff alleges that his request for a religious exemption was denied. (See Am. Compl. 4.) Plaintiff was “advised by management…not to come to work”; he would “be deemed to have ‘voluntarily resigned.’” (Am. Compl. 4.) B. Procedural History Plaintiff brought this action on September 27, 2021. (See Am. Compl.) The amended complaint primarily asserts two claims. First, it asserts that a federal judge in the Northern District of New York has restrained all health care employers in the State of New York from mandating COVID-19 vaccination without considering religious exceptions, and Defendants have violated this court order. (See Am. Compl.
