Days after Vice President Mike Pence stated that religious liberty is a “top priority” for the Trump administration, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that the DOJ will be creating a “religious liberty task force” to protect people of faith from being harassed by state and local governments.
According to The Hill, “Sessions said the task force … will help the department fully implement the religious liberty guidance it issued last year.” The task force comes largely as a result of President Trump’s executive order from last year advising government agencies to respect and protect religious liberty and political speech.
