Dear Friend,
The Do No Harm Act (H.R. 1378 ([link removed]) ), has been reintroduced in the House of Representatives for the 117th Congress. This important piece of legislation has been one of our coalition’s top priorities since it was first introduced back in 2016. Right now we have a real opportunity to see it pass both chambers and be signed into law, but we need your help!
This important legislation would restore true religious freedom by amending the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) of 1993, to ensure that religion is not used as a license to discriminate against, or deprive others of their civil rights. The House version of the bill has been reintroduced by Rep. Bobby Scott (D-VA-03).
The Do No Harm Act will reverse the damage caused by the Supreme Court’s Hobby Lobby decision ([link removed]) , which greatly expanded RFRA and granted corporations unprecedented authority to force a religious agenda on employees. This specific case opened the door for virtually any religiously affiliated business to use religious privilege as a get-out-of-jail-free card for violating a law it happens to disagree with.
Tell Congress to Support the Do No Harm Act! ([link removed])
Religious privilege will continue to erode progress on civil rights until Congress draws a line in the sand. You can be a big part of our mission to get the Do No Harm Act ([link removed]) passed and signed into law by contacting your Representative in Washington, and asking them for their support. If they have already co-sponsored the bill, please thank them. Together, we will get it done!
