The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has issued guidance protecting religious expression in the workplace.

“From the very beginning, America has recognized the freedom of religion as the bedrock principle of our Republic,“ Secretary Brooke Rollins said. “It is no accident that the First Amendment protects the free exercise of faith alongside the freedoms of speech and assembly.“

“At this pivotal moment in our nation’s history, we must preserve religious liberty, not only as a constitutional guarantee, but also as a safeguard for every other freedom we hold dear,” said Secretary Rollins. “By protecting the right of every American to live out their faith and express religiously inspired ideas in public and in the workplace without fear, we are defending the very foundation of American liberty for this generation and the next.“

She added, “I thank President Trump for his bold leadership in restoring America’s constitutional heritage of religious liberty across the public sphere and the federal government.”

As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

• For Secretary Rollins and USDA officials as they seek to uphold religious protections for federal workers.
• For President Trump to be led by God as he commemorates the nation’s heritage of faith.
• With gratitude to the Lord for the Bill of Rights, which includes the freedom of religion.
