Dear Friend,
We are pleased to share an important update from the White House Faith Office, where Advocates for Faith & Freedom has participated in briefings focused on the policies, challenges, and opportunities affecting people of faith across our nation.
The White House Faith Office recently released a report highlighting 150 victories for people of faith, including major actions to protect religious liberty, defend conscience rights, support parental rights, confront antisemitism and anti-Christian bias, preserve women’s sports, restore biological truth, protect life, strengthen families, and ensure that faith-based organizations are treated fairly by the government.
These victories include:
- Establishing the White House Faith Office and Religious Liberty Commission
- Creating a federal task force to eradicate anti-Christian bias
- Strengthening protections for religious expression and workplace accommodations
- Defending parental rights and expanding school choice
- Protecting female athletes and recognizing biological reality
- Safeguarding conscience rights for healthcare professionals
- Combating antisemitism on college campuses
- Ending government policies that discriminated against faith-based organizations
- Protecting the sanctity of human life and strengthening families
The report reflects a significant shift in Washington. Religious liberty is no longer being treated as a narrow privilege to be tolerated only when faith remains private. It is being recognized as a foundational constitutional freedom that must be protected in schools, workplaces, churches, healthcare settings, and throughout public life.
Advocates for Faith & Freedom is grateful for the opportunity to engage with the White House Faith Office through these briefings and to help bring forward the real concerns facing believers, families, churches, schools, and ministries.
The Faith Office has also indicated that it will soon release an expanded report highlighting 250 victories for people of faith. We look forward to sharing that update with you as soon as it becomes available.
This progress is encouraging, but the work is not finished. Policies must be enforced, constitutional protections must reach the individuals whose rights are being threatened, and government agencies must be held accountable when they fail to respect religious freedom.
That is where Advocates for Faith & Freedom continues to serve.
Through litigation, legal advocacy, public education, and collaboration with leaders at every level of government, we remain committed to defending faith, protecting families, and preserving freedom.
Thank you for standing with us in this important work. Your prayers and partnership make it possible for us to continue carrying the concerns of people of faith into the courts, the halls of government, and the public square.
In Christ,
Erin Mersino
