VA Creates Task Force to Investigate Anti-Christian Bias
Tap title to read story
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is creating a task force to investigate reports of anti-Christian bias among employees, following a broader Trump administration initiative. VA Secretary Doug Collins sent a department-wide email urging employees to report such incidents, including those related to religious exemptions and displays of Christian imagery. This initiative, mirroring similar efforts in other agencies, has drawn criticism for potentially prioritizing Christian rights over other religious minorities and blurring the lines between church and state. Critics argue the task force lacks factual basis and could further divide the veteran community.
