Foxx: In America, Religious Freedom is on Trial
WASHINGTON, D.C.,
March 30, 2022
Today, on the House Floor, Education and Labor Committee Republican Leader Virginia Foxx (R-NC) highlighted Democrats’ attacks on religious liberty.
Key Excerpts from Republican Leader Foxx's Remarks: “Today, religious organizations are under attack by the woke agenda of Democrats. Those on the left claim that faith-based organizations must abandon their conscience and amend their employment practices, or they should not have access to federal contracts or funds. “It’s a damning ultimatum. ... “This coordinated campaign is being carried out by the left, and it’s guided by the assumption that a radical, progressive dogma is more legitimate than religious beliefs. “That assumption is pure insanity. “In this great country, faith is not subjugated or left at the door. It is carried with us no matter where we may go. “I applaud every man and woman who is standing up to this egregious assault from the left and is fighting for the right to live by religious convictions at work and in business. ... “Whenever we see protections for religious freedom being chipped away in this country, it is our solemn duty as Americans and people of faith to take a stand.” Watch the full video here. ### |
