The separation of church and state protects the right of all Americans to practice the faith of their choice, or none at all, free of government interference. Unfortunately, Texas politicians continue to push their extremist views – undermining the true meaning of religious freedom
Far-right politicians and extremists distort the true meaning of religious freedom by imposing their personal views on others and using religion as a weapon to discriminate, control, and divide us.
Texas Freedom Network fights for a state where no one religion is elevated over another and where all people — whatever they believe — are treated with empathy, kindness, and compassion.
