H.R. 5 would destroy the freedom of every single employer, even religious ones. Because of the threat of lawsuits, this legislation would go beyond forcing religious groups to hire cross-dressing and gender confused individuals. In practice, H.R. 5 would cause them to prefer individuals involved in such behavior to avoid litigation. Even for sensitive positions such as raising children, assisting grieving families in a funeral home, or providing counseling to troubled youth, those involved in LGBT conduct would have complete access and even priority over other employees.
This bill has no religious exemption. It completely disregards the mission of the organization, business, ministry, church, home business, or even a service that is offered through the internet.
Liberty Counsel Action is leading the charge to stop H.R. 5 and we have a plan. See how you can help us stop this devastating legislation. - Mat

William,
H.R. 5 will change the legal landscape of our nation significantly! Courts established to protect people of faith would be flipped into instruments of punishment against them. Even before they could defend their actions to a judge, Christians could be tried and convicted. Any employers found “guilty” under this anti-religious law could be forced to hand their entire life savings over to a stranger because they refused to sacrifice the principles of their faith.
That would not be the America envisioned and built by our Founding Fathers! Rather, it would reward Russian-styled KGB informants with extensive “damages” awarded through lawsuits against people of faith. Help Liberty Counsel Action stop this bill in its tracks!
Right now, there are 47 U.S. Senators who are co-sponsoring the Senate’s version of this bill (S.788). So, H.R. 5 is only a few votes short of having a majority in both legislative bodies. But Liberty Counsel Action is building a firewall in the Senate. Our staff in Washington D.C. is carefully building relationships with, and educating, our national legislators.
If you haven't already, add your name to our petition against H.R. 5. We are asking people from all across America to sign our petition against H.R. 5. Then we will hand-deliver it to legislators across D.C. with a strong message demanding the preservation of religious freedom.
Liberty Counsel Action is doing everything that we can to fight this bill! God opened the door for me to be on more than 500 radio stations this week discussing the legal ramifications of H.R. 5. And thanks to donations from people like you, we can provide expert advice on more than 1,000 radio segments throughout America! Liberty Counsel Action is on the frontlines leading the discussion and shaping the debate on H.R. 5.
However, this debate is not going away! Would you pray about giving your best donation to help our organization fight this battle today? This will give us the tools we need now to be able to fight tomorrow’s battles too.
We have the opportunity to rise up and to make our case for religious freedom. We need to continue reaching out to people who are still undecided and win them over. You have relationships and connections that I do not. I urge you to help spread this message to your family, your friends and even to your acquaintances! Let them know about this petition against this bill to help us build a network for this battle and beyond.
Just send them our pre-written email asking them to join our petition.
We are fighting to protect freedom. I appreciate any help you can give.
Sincerely,
Mat Staver
Chairman
P.S. We are fighting for the right of Christians to be involved in the marketplaces of America, free of government intrusion and pressure to bow to the whims of sinful behavior. Support our effort to stop this bill. To make sure we don’t run out of steam, will you consider donating today? If you haven't already, sign and share our petition. Our legislators need to hear from you.
