Conscience Amendment Loses in the Senate
The 'conscience amendment' authored by Senator Roy Blunt (R-MO), that would have protected religious freedom, lost in the senate this morning by a vote of 51-48. Both Texas senators voted for the amendment. This vote is a reminder of the grave threats opposed to religious freedom in our country and why we must continue pushing forward in this fight.
