"We must promote religious liberty for all people. Every man and woman must be free to profess his or her faith, whatever it may be. Why? Because that man and that woman are children of God." - Pope Francis
Religious freedom has profound implications for the common good of our nation and world.  The USCCB offers opportunities for you to take action and make your voice heard in support of religious freedom within our nation and throughout the world. 

On the USCCB site you can also watch a short video on Religious Freedom:
