Over the last year, the Trump Administration used the pandemic as an excuse to fund houses of worship with more than $7.3 billion of our taxpayer money.
Before leaving office, the Trump Administration proposed a regulation to try to make this unconstitutional taxpayer giveaway to religion permanent. But we have a chance to stop it!
Until this Friday, February 12, the Biden Administration is accepting comments from all Americans, asking us whether we are for or against government funding of religious activities.
There is no greater violation of the separation of religion and government than forcing Americans—especially atheists—to fund someone else’s religious instruction and worship.
And that’s why Christian nationalists in the Trump Administration pushed this unconstitutional regulation at the last minute—hoping that you and all the other defenders of church/state separation would not notice.
