What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis bill would stop people from using a religious freedom law (called the Religious Freedom Restoration Act) as a reason to get around certain other federal laws. Specifically, it could not be used to get around laws that protect against discrimination, require employers to provide wages and benefits, protect workers' rights to organize, prevent child labor or abuse, or ensure access to health care services. The bill would also prevent the religious freedom law from being used to refuse government-provided goods, services, or benefits to people who are supposed to receive them. Additionally, someone could only use this religious freedom law in court if the government is one of the parties involved in the case.
