Respect for religious freedom
An extensive presidential executive order has been proposed and circulated among federal agencies in Washington. It has also been leaked, and since then, LGBT activists have demanded that President Trump not sign it. But Sandy Rios, director of governmental affairs for the American Family Association, explains that it instructs the government to respect genuine religious freedom.
"It doesn't just deal with the freedom of worship. It is freedom of religion, expression of your faith in your practical life, in your business, in your work and how you do things -- that you should not be punished because you believe that marriage should be between one man and one woman, or that bathrooms should be assigned according to biological sex," Rios submits.
Sandy RiosThe proposed order warns the federal bureaucracy to do an about-face and show some respect.
"It instructs all the agencies of the federal government to permit federal employees to practice their faith without fear of punishment, to not worry about what they say if they're expressing their viewpoints," the governmental affairs director details. "It prevents the federal government from withholding contracts from people who hold religious conscience on LGBT issues."
OneNewsNow columnist Bryan Fischer describes the draft document as "a masterpiece ... stunningly and brilliantly crafted." But the White House has been so battered by LGBT activists opposed to it that the support of at least two highly-placed government officials appears to be weakening. So Rios urges people to contact the White House and encourage the president to sign the document. https://www.onenewsnow.com/culture/2017/02/06/respect-for-religious-freedom
