Evangelicals join USCCB in criticizing proposed regulations on federally-funded faith-based organizations (USCCB)

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, National Association of Evangelicals, Christian Legal Society, Thomas More Society, and Council for Christian Colleges and Universities have issued a joint response to the Biden administration’s proposed regulations on faith-based organizations that provide federally-funded social services.

Among other criticisms, the organizations called on the Biden administration to restore language that makes clear that a religious recipient of federal funding “may select its employees on the basis of their acceptance of or adherence to the religious tenets of the organization.”
