2 More States Add Religious Freedom Laws

Do you know how your state handles religious liberty protections? In just the past couple of months, two additional states have joined 21 other states that have adopted laws making it harder for their governments to substantially burden the religious exercise rights of individuals, groups, and churches.

Content editor Matthew Branaugh provides more details about the new laws in his latest article, which is available to you for free on ChurchLawAndTax.com.
