1/2 - Religious tests are wrong in America whether they are pushed by US Senators (I'm looking at the two from my state, California) or when they are pushed by party bigots such as Ms. O'Brien. The difference is that my friends in the Texas GOP have solidly condemned this effort/
/2 whereas Democratic leaders in Congress have yet to rebuke their anti-religion-bigot colleagues - your turn, Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi. Our party welcomes all people of faith to participate and lead -- including Christians, Jews, Muslims, Sikhs, Hindus, Buddhists, & more /
Time to put this ugly chapter of our nation's history behind us & make clear on a bipartisan basis that religion tests are unAmerican, respect for faith and people of faith IS American, and we are stronger as a nation when we build coalitions with other believers & work together.
