Are you a faith voter? Do you want to know how President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris have approached the issues that matter to you?
First Liberty has a side-by-side comparison of their records. Here’s a quick look at how both candidates fare on religious liberty:
Donald Trump and the Trump Administration on Religious Freedom
- Created a religious liberty task force at the U.S. Department of Justice
- Provided religious exemptions from the contraceptive mandate
- Advocated for the repeal of the Johnson Amendment
- Supported wedding vendors and faith-based foster care providers in Supreme Court cases
- Strengthened religious liberty protections in the military
Kamala Harris and the Biden/Harris Administration on Religious Freedom
- Introduced a bill to weaken the Religious Freedom Restoration Act
- Opposed religious exemptions from the contraceptive mandate
- Co-sponsored the ‘Equality Act,’ which some view as the most serious threat to religious freedom ever considered by Congress
- Opposed free speech for religious wedding vendors and business owners
- Opposed a landmark Supreme Court ruling that held Americans do not lose their religious freedom when they open a business
Our legal experts also break down how Trump and Harris approached the Supreme Court, judges, free speech, families, life and other important faith-related issues. Click below to download the free guide:
