Friends,
The Trump administration just proposed a new rule that would allow government contractors to use any religious litmus test they want to discriminate in employment.
Under this rule, a government contractor could cite religion to refuse to hire a single mom or someone who is LGBTQ. A for-profit corporation that claims it’s religious could take taxpayer dollars and fire someone who is a religious minority – so fire me, for example, because I’m Jewish.

This action tarnishes our country’s proud history of preventing employment discrimination with taxpayer dollars.
If it goes through, the consequences will be felt across the country. One-fourth of the US workforce is employed by government contractors.
Add your name to our rapid response petition now to reject this attempt at discrimination in the name of religion: [link removed]
In solidarity,
