On May 1, Trump celebrated National Day of Prayer by unveiling an Executive Order for a new Religious Liberty Commission. This initiative aims to bolster protections for religious liberties across the U.S., with policies to be recommended for enforcement. While Trumpâs order does not explicitly highlight Christianity, related documents do, reflecting ongoing efforts to address perceptions of anti-Christian bias within government. His actions have reignited discussions around the separation of church and state, drawing parallels to past initiatives by George W. Bush, but indicating a more pronounced shift in religious policy under Trump.
"The Religious Liberty Commission shall be the policy of the executive branch to vigorously enforce the historic and robust protections for religious liberty enshrined in Federal law."
"My Administration will not tolerate anti-Christian weaponization of government or unlawful conduct targeting Christians."
