1. NC VALUES: Tell Senators Burr and Tillis to Oppose the "Equality Act"
Over the past couple months, a bill mislabeled as the "Equality Act" has passed the U.S. House, and is now being considered by our U.S. Senators. Unfortunately, the so-called "Equality Act" actually enforces anti-religious liberty inequalities at the federal level. The implications for Christians would be disastrous and are antithetical to the First Amendment. The bill poses a major danger to medical professionals, children, parents, female athletes, artisans, charities, and other faith-based proponents of traditional marriage and biological sex.
In short it is a far-reaching anti-religious liberty SOGI law with disastrous implications.
