Trump signs executive order to 'eradicate anti-Christian bias' in government

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on May 4, 2017, aimed at protecting religious liberty, with a particular focus on what was described as "anti-Christian bias" within the U.S. government. The order, titled "Promoting Free Speech and Religious Liberty," instructed the Department of Justice to develop guidelines to ensure that religious organizations are not unfairly targeted by government regulations. It also relaxed some restrictions of the Johnson Amendment, allowing religious leaders to endorse political candidates without risking their tax-exempt status, although this aspect was more symbolic as it would require Congressional action to fully repeal the amendment. Critics argued that the order did not go far enough in providing concrete protections for religious freedom, while supporters viewed it as a significant step towards safeguarding the rights of religious individuals and organizations to practice their faith freely.
