A Trump commission urges 'bridges' between church and state in sweeping draft report
A Trump administration commission's draft report proposes replacing the separation of church and state with 'bridges' between them, recommending policies like eliminating the Johnson Amendment and expanding religious expression in public spaces. The report faces opposition from groups like the Center for American Progress, which defends church-state separation, and critics argue the commission lacks ideological diversity and addressed issues like anti-Muslim efforts in Texas.
