A Trump commission urges bridge between church and state in sweeping draft report
· KRGV (NBC 5)
A draft report from a commission established by former President Trump advocates for a closer relationship between church and state, challenging the traditional separation concept. Released by the Religious Liberty Commission, the 224-page document recommends various measures, including repealing the Johnson Amendment, which restricts political activities of tax-exempt religious groups, and expanding religious expression in public spaces. It also proposes compensating military members discharged for refusing COVID-19 vaccines and creating new honors for religious liberty. The report is open for public comment for 15 days, but it faces criticism from groups advocating for the separation of church and state.
