Friend,

State legislatures around the country are starting up, which means religious extremists and their lawmaker allies are also back to attacking church-state separation and trying to force all of us to live by their beliefs.

Americans United is already monitoring more than 800 bills that would threaten true religious freedom, as well as LGBTQ+ people, abortion access, public education and much more. And since this is an election year, we know more bills will be introduced by legislators seeking to rally a small but powerful faction of religious extremists in the weeks ahead, including in your state.

Act Now! Email your state legislators today and urge them to protect church-state separation by using this quick and easy form: [link removed]

Nationwide, we are confronting bills that would:

— Unconstitutionally promote religion in public schools, including those that would allow school-sponsored prayer, require displays of the Ten Commandments in every public school classroom, require students to take classes dedicated solely to the Bible and censor library books, classroom materials or curriculum based on religious beliefs.
— Send taxpayer dollars to fund private, mostly religious schools through private school voucher programs.
— Ban abortion and restrict access to critical reproductive health care, which imposes one narrow religious doctrine on everyone.
— Misuse religious freedom to license discrimination against people where they work, where they shop, or when they try to get health care they need, which especially harms LGBTQ+ people, religious minorities, women and nonreligious people.

Friend, we’re fighting back, but we need your help!

Contact your state legislators today and tell them it’s never been more important to uphold church-state separation and protect religious freedom for everyone: [link removed]

As the state legislative sessions progress, keep an eye on your inbox for future updates on how we’re working to tirelessly combat these threats, and what you can do to help in your state and around the country.

Thanks for raising your voice to protect church-state separation in 2024!
