In 2011, Obama stripped the US Conference of Catholics Bishops of its longstanding funding for human-trafficking work because of the Bishops’ conscientious objections ......referring to “victims” of abortions.
In 2012, he had his lawyers work to strike down the ministerial exception in federal workplace discrimination law, which assures houses of worship the right to employ religious leaders according to doctrine.

Under Obama’s watch, the State Department stepped up to defend believers on death row for their faith – only when the noise from nongovernmental organizations grew deafening.
