The last time a marriage-related bill went through the U.S. House, nearly 40 Republicans caved. Following last week’s Supreme Court rulings, LGBTQ radicals in the U.S. House only need six Republicans to accomplish the greatest attack on our freedom that has ever come before Congress.

Every Democrat in the House (212) has signed on to co-sponsor the new HR 15, which is misnamed the “Equality Act.”

Everyone will be harmed if this bill passes. People of faith, including churches, faith-based organizations, religious schools, and more, will become villains in the eyes of the law. Please rush your urgent faxes to Congress to stop Republicans from caving to this legislation and block this bill. — Your Faith & Liberty team

This grossly misnamed “Equality Act” will target and attack everyone — especially religious people and institutions — with shocking, never-before-seen violations of freedom in America!

Congress is only a few votes away from passing the most outrageous and expansive bill ever to come out of Congress. It will be used to force every person to fall in line with the radical LGBTQ agenda or face outrageous court fines.

The far-reaching impact of this bill can best be described in this short sentence: What you cannot do respecting race, you will not be able to do legally respecting LGBTQ. This bill explicitly guts religious freedom, by name, elevates anything LGBTQ to the nation’s top priority and highest protection. The bill explicitly targets religious freedom by removing the Religious Freedom Restoration Act protections.

This bill will do all the following:

• Churches and religious organizations could be forced to host same-sex ceremonies or lose tax-exempt status for noncompliance.

• Cross-dressers could demand to be greeters, ushers, Sunday school teachers, and other roles in the church.

• Churches and religious schools would be forced to hire staff involved in LGBTQ conduct, even for visible positions of authority, and give them access to children, even in restrooms.

• Churches and religious colleges will lose tax exemption and accreditation if they do not bow to this radical agenda.

• If taking overnight trips with children, including sports or mission trips for schools or churches, you will not be able to separate people sleeping in the same room by biological gender.

• Religious schools would be forced to hire staff involved in the LGBTQ agenda and be forced to use biologically false pronouns and assign biological males to the girls’ dorms.

• Biological men will have access to women’s restrooms, locker rooms, dressing rooms, showers, and nursing-mother rooms at any time, and they will be able to stay as long as they please.

• From kindergarten, children will be taught that they can choose their gender and will be encouraged to experiment with each other.

• And too many other things to mention here.

The last two years, we have won this battle by stopping this bill in the Senate. But now it is back in the House and is only a few votes from passing. If it passes the House, it has a high probability of passing the Senate. The LGBTQ lobby is using last week’s Supreme Court decisions as the rallying cry to pass the recently filed Equality Act — HR 15.

Our best chance to stop this bill is in the U.S. House. Every vote counts. This year, a victory will require every vote we can muster. Send your faxes right now to Congress to block this bill.

The Equality Act will apply to everyone — to all businesses, public and private schools, K-college, churches, all the way down to online, at-home businesses, home-based daycares, adoption and foster care, medical providers — and the list goes on. This bill demands that every person bow the knee to the radical LGBTQ agenda.

The Equality Act will cover every area of our lives.

HR 15 repeals the federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act and strips religious people of their last remaining defense of living out their faith. No person, church, or school will be untouched.

It is imperative that we do not allow this bill to pass. Stand with me today. Send your faxes now to stop the Equality Act.

We cannot emphasize enough how important it is to stop HR 15. Together, we can win!
