Two important national laws related to religious liberty

Drawing the line between religious liberty and the neutral application of general laws has been tricky recently. The following two laws were meant to make this process easier, but that might have been wishful thinking.

We will look at these in class this week - in 2305 mostly.

- Religious Freedom Restoration Act.
- Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act.

Aside from helping out with formulating answers to this week's written assignment, these will help us walk through the bill making process.
