We’re proud to join forces with the ACLU to challenge Arkansas’ blatant attempt to force religion on public schoolchildren. No student should be forced to learn under a religious edict. This law is unconstitutional — and we’re fighting to stop it. …

Seth Gruber has it backwards. History shows that giving one religion political power leads to oppression, not justice. We need leaders accountable to the people, not to their personal gods. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

We're deeply troubled too, because one of our elected officials is openly embracing Christian nationalism. Rep. Mary Miller doesn’t oppose prayer in Congress, just non-Christian ones. There shouldn’t be any government-sponsored prayer on the House floor.…

Trump’s new travel ban isn’t about safety — it’s about signaling loyalty to white Christian nationalism. Once again, religion is being weaponized to exclude, dehumanize, and divide. America must reject religious discrimination in all forms. [contains…

Religion has too often protected predators instead of children. That’s why Washington passed a clergy reporting law — and why Catholic bishops (with help from the DOJ) are trying to overturn it. When abuse is confessed, it should be reported — not hidden…

Trump says he’s on a mission from God — but we’ve read the Constitution, and there’s no divine right of presidents. Christian nationalism is a threat to true religious freedom — and we will never stop defending our secular Constitution.
