How We Protect Religious Equality and Freedom
Religious freedom in America must be defended in the courts, legislatures, and the public square. Americans United brings together people of all religions and none to protect the separation of church and state.
We bring together Americans of all religions and none to speak out for the freedom to live as ourselves and believe as we choose.
We fight for laws that prevent religion from being used to harm others.
We litigate against religious extremists and their lawmaker allies who are attacking religious freedom in America.
