Issue Position: Faith

Issue Position

I am committed to protecting and restoring religious freedom for all members of the human family.
We must never forget that our nation was founded by those who fled their country seeking to preserve the inalienable right of religious liberty. Throughout the history of our nation, people have left their homes in the cover of night to escape to the United States due to the religious persecution in their own countries. Unfortunately, in many places in the world today, the right to choose and practice one's faith is still not protected. This is why I find it so very imperative that we as a nation continue to work to eliminate violations of religious freedom. Constitutionally guaranteed religious freedom creates a critical framework for discussion and debate. It has the power to turn the war of weapons into a war of words.
