ICYMI: 6 Hours Left to Protect Faith-Based Contractors!
In case you missed it, the Biden-Harris Administration is determined
to cancel religious freedom for federal contractors before Christmas.
We need you to take action! Protect faith-based contractors by
submitting a comment to the Federal Register before midnight EST
tonight!
Numerous faith-based organizations and companies contract with the
federal government. These organizations provide medical care for their
communities, serve the poor, care for orphans, provide research
through educational institutions, create jobs for workers, and more.
But the Biden-Harris Department of Labor wants to rescind an important
rule related to religious organizations and certain religious
businesses that contract with the federal government.
The Trump Administration implemented a rule to ensure religious
employers who contract with the federal government would not be
punished for hiring according to their religious beliefs. The rule
ensured the government would not discriminate against faith-based
organizations and provided clarity on religious exemptions for certain
religious corporations, associations, educational institutions, and
societies.
The Biden Administration is trying to revoke that rule- but your
comment can make a difference!
BEFORE MIDNIGHT EST TONIGHT: Tell the Department of Labor
you OPPOSE revoking religious freedom for federal contractors!

MESSAGE:
Dear Director Williams,
I am writing to strongly oppose the Department's revocation of
religious freedom protections for federal contractors.
Religious employers, contractors, and subcontractors should be able to
run their businesses according to their sincerely-held religious
beliefs, observances, and practices.
This rule will significantly eliminate the robust religious freedom
protections for a diverse range of religious organizations and
companies, who will in turn be forced to choose between their faith
and serving those in need.
Many faith-based organizations and faith-based companies provide
valuable services to assist the homeless, feed the hungry, care for
the orphan, help victims of sexual abuse, treat those in
need of medical care, research the field of science, educate the next
generation, provide jobs for Americans and their families, and more. I
do not understand why the Biden-Harris Administration wants to make it
harder for them to operate according to their mission, or potentially
deny them contracts because of their faith.
Every organization and company should be able to freely implement its
faith-based mission, including in their hiring practices.
The Department's proposal causes Americans like me to ask the
question, "Will the Biden-Harris Administration target religious
groups and individuals that do not comply with their agenda?"
In conclusion, proposed RIN 1250-AA09 will clearly reduce the rights
of federal contractors who conduct their business practices according
to their sincerely-held religious beliefs.
I urge the Department to immediately revoke RIN 1250-AA09.
Sincerely,
866.655.4545 - 8675 Explorer Drive, Suite 112, Colorado Springs, CO
