Thank you to the Rep. Ryan Mackenzie staffers who took the time to meet with us and discuss the Right to Worship Act.
At AMMWEC, we believe everyone should be able to enter a mosque, synagogue, church, temple, or gurdwara and worship without fear, intimidation, or obstruction. Protecting that freedom is central to our mission.
We are proud to stand alongside a broad coalition of interfaith organizations supporting this effort. Religious freedom belongs to every American, and protecting it should unite us across faiths and party lines. ADL Washington, D.C.
Anti-Defamation League Rep. Tom Suozzi Congressman Brad Knott Sen. Elissa Slotkin Anila Ali

A powerful multifaith coalition came together on Capitol Hill to defend one of America’s most fundamental freedoms: the right to worship without fear.

Muslim, Jewish, Christian, Hindu, Sikh and other national organizations have joined in support of the bipartisan, bicameral Right to Worship Act. More than 30 national organizations now back the legislation, which was introduced in the House by Rep. Tom Suozzi and Congressman Brad Knott and in the Senate by Sen. Elissa Slotkin and Senator Ted Cruz .

Here, members of our coalition are meeting with congressional offices in the Senate to advocate for religious freedom and explain why protecting access to houses of worship matters to communities across America.

Different faiths. One shared American principle: every person should be able to enter a synagogue, mosque, church, mandir, gurdwara or other house of worship without intimidation or obstruction. Anila Ali Zebunnesa Zeba Zubair ADL Washington, D.C.

AMMWEC is proud to stand alongside this broad coalition in urging Congress to advance the Right to Worship Act.
