OK, I get that President Trump has his hands full – what with the Russians, North Korea, border security, his cabinet shake-ups, “fake news,” Leftists, and RINOs out to stab him in the back (not to even mention the Stormy Daniels drama)… So maybe he’s just too distracted. But someone needs to fill him in on Chai Feldblum. This radical hold-over from the Obama era has to go – not be reappointed to the EEOC – where she can further erode our religious freedom for another five years.
Feldblum has served as one of the five members of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) since 2010 ~
Originally appointed to the agency by former President Barack Obama, (Feldblum) is an intensely progressive agency official who has broken with the administration in key policy areas since Trump assumed office in January of 2017. Before joining the Commission, she regularly advocated for the supremacy of LGBT rights over religious liberty as a professor at the Georgetown University Law Center.
Her arguments include endorsing polygamy, defending burdening religious practice to advance LGBT equality, and questioning the value of marriage as a social good.

In other words, she holds views that would have horrified our foundering fathers. Views that most Americans still find offensive today. Here are a couple more examples, via Glenn Beck ~
“We should similarly not tolerate private beliefs about sexual orientation and gender identity that adversely affect LGBT people.”
“A law that permits no individual exceptions based on religious beliefs will be the least restrictive means of achieving the goal of liberty for gay people.”
Ah, the intolerance of LGBTQ activism.
Feldblum, with her “sexual libertarian“ libertine worldview seems intent on punishing Christians for their deeply-held religious beliefs, as the recent case of EEOC v. Harris Funeral Homes illustrates ~
(A) Christian business owner of a funeral home had fired employee Anthony Stephens, who was undergoing “gender transitioning” and wearing women’s clothes to work. The business owner said this violated his Christian beliefs, but the EEOC argued that a Christian business owner could not fire a transgender employee for religious reasons. The court agreed.
No one who is this far out of the mainstream should be effecting policy on workplace discrimination law. If you don’t think so either, please sign this petition to President Trump at the American Family Association ~
President Trump, who campaigned on and issued an Executive Order protecting religious liberty, said, “Faith is deeply embedded into the history of our country, the spirit of our founding and the soul of our nation…[this administration] will not allow people of faith to be targeted, bullied, or silenced anymore.”
The re-nomination of Chai Feldblum, one of President Obama’s most ardent opponents of religious liberty, grossly undermines President Trump’s promises as well as his instructions to Attorney General Jeff Sessions to protect religious liberty.
Chai Feldblum and her radical views on human sexuality are NOT what we voted for.
