From Faith in Public Life (http://www.faithinpubliclife.org):
President Trump is expected to sign a new executive order this Thursday that would open the door to sweeping discrimination against gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans under the guise of religious liberty. We can’t stand on the sidelines and let this happen.
Join 1,300 faith leaders in calling on President Trump to protect religious liberty – not use it as a tool to discriminate – at http://fpl.actionkit.com/sign/faith-leaders-president-trump-dont-use-religion-discriminate.
Religious freedom is a core principle of our nation. That’s why it’s protected in the First Amendment. We cannot allow the Trump administration to enshrine one religious perspective — on marriage, gender or health care — into law above all others. We must take action now before it’s too late.
Let’s show President Trump what commitment to religious liberty and nondiscrimination really looks like.

As a lifelong Christian, I am committed to religious freedom AND to self-determination, and the right for all to decide with their God what is right for them. Religion should not be used as a tool to discriminate, but rather as a way to protect each indivual’s freedom to chose their own destiny.
Please do NOT sign an executive order that enshrines religious favoritism and discourages personal choices.
