Religious Liberty in US Politics and Law

Religious Liberty in US Politics and Law

Multiple developments: Texas Ten Commandments law moving toward Supreme Court; Trump vs. Biden religious liberty visions compared; a report warns of U.S. shift away from international religious freedom; the Supreme Court limited RLUIPA damages against prison officials; and a new Supreme Court case from an Ohio Jewish prayer gathering challenges the 'ripeness' doctrine, potentially easing religious groups' ability to sue over zoning and permitting restrictions. All directly impact LDS members' ability to live their faith publicly and the Church's global advocacy.
