Biden Targets the Religious Freedom of Federal Contractors

His Labor Department seeks to rescind a Trump-issued rule protecting them.

Joe Biden is systematically eliminating the religious freedom protections that Donald Trump established. The latest example of Biden’s secularist program comes from his Labor Department, which is planning to undo Trump’s policy of defending the religious freedom of federal contractors.

Trump’s Labor Department protected federal contractors who “hold themselves out to the public as carrying out a religious purpose.”

“Religious organizations should not have to fear that acceptance of a federal contract or subcontract will require them to abandon their religious character or identity,” said Trump’s Secretary of Labor Eugene Scalia.

Before leaving office, Trump strengthened a Labor Department rule granting exemptions to religious organizations. His Labor Department said the strengthened rule would “correct any misperception that religious organizations are disfavored in government contracting by setting forth appropriate protections for their autonomy to hire employees who will further their religious missions.”

Biden’s Labor Department plans to discard that rule.

I sincerely hope that on his first day back in the Whitehouse, Trump has a complete list of ALL of the things that Resident Dirty Pants has screwed up since he snuck in to our House, and issues hundreds of Exec Orders to correct it all. DAY ONE!!!

As a matter of law, there is no religious exception in Maine, New York, and Rhode Island.

ChiComjoe and his kakistocrats are traitors to the Constitution of the United States. It is displayed in every action they take to weaken and destroy the United States and to demostrate their hatred of the people of the United States.

Accept the King’s shilling, do the King’s bidding. The way it has worked for centuries.
