Protecting Civil Rights: No Harm from Religious Freedom.
This act aims to strengthen existing civil rights protections, such as anti-discrimination, equal employment opportunities, and access to healthcare. It means that religious freedom cannot be used to justify actions that harm others or violate their rights, ensuring citizens full and equal access to services and benefits.
Key points
Strengthening Anti-Discrimination: Religious freedom cannot be a reason to deny services or discriminate in employment.
Worker Rights: Employers cannot use religious freedom to avoid paying wages, benefits, or adhering to labor laws.
Healthcare Access: The act ensures religious freedom will not limit access to healthcare information, referrals, or services.
Child Protection: Laws against child labor, abuse, and exploitation remain unaffected.
Equal Government Access: Every citizen has the right to full and equal enjoyment of government-provided goods and services.
