A recent Pew Research analysis reveals that 87% of the 119th Congress identifies as Christian, showing a slight decline from previous sessions.
With 61% of Congress identifying as Protestant and only 3 members (0.6%) claiming no religious affiliation, Congress remains dominated by Christianity.
While Christian representation in Congress mirrors the U.S. population, other religions constitute a small minority, particularly with a mere 0.6% unaffiliated members.
Notable disparities exist in religious demographics; 98% of Republicans are Christian compared to 75% among Democrats, indicating differing religious compositions.
