Groups protest ban on religion-based hiring in proposed SAMHSA legislation

By Alliance Alert

ADVERTISEMENTS

Religion Clause: "Today's New York Times and a press release from World Vision report that over 100 religious organizations have written to every member of Congress objecting to a provision in HR 5466, the proposed SAMHSA Modernization Act of 2010 reauthorizing the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. At issue is a provision (Sec. 501(m)(2)) that would prevent grant recipients under the Act from hiring on the basis of religion."
