President Trump told the United Nations General Assembly yesterday:
"Approximately 80% of the world population live in countries where religious liberties are threatened, restricted or even banned. When I heard that number I said, ‘Please go back and check because it can’t possibly be correct.’ Sadly, it was. Eighty percent. As we speak, Jews, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Sikhs, and many other people of faith are being jailed, sanctioned, tortured and even murdered at the hands of their own government simply for expressing their deeply held religious beliefs. ... Today, with one clear voice, the United States of America calls upon the nations of the world to end religious persecution.”
As Grassfire mentioned yesterday (see below), the timing of the President's speech was very ironic. As America's Commander-in-Chief was pressing other world leaders to expand religious freedom, Democrats in Congress are trying to punish U.S. Christians who refuse to violate their faith.
The so-called Equality Act seeks to ram a pro-homosexual, pro-transgender agenda down the throats of the American people. Also, the radical Left wants the horrible bill passed in secret. That's why they're trying to sneak aspects of the legislation into smaller bills, hoping no one will notice.
Grassfire recently launched the SNEAK ATTACK FaxFire, which enables our team members to instantly send personalized messages to Senators being targeted by LGBTQ activists. Click here now and demand they stand strong against the pro-homosexual, pro-transgender lobby.
To fully understand what's at stake for American Christians, we attached yesterday's email below. Please take action now and tell your two Senators and other key Senate leaders to reject the anti-faith Equality Act.
Thanks in advance,
The Grassfire Team

This morning, President Trump delivered a keynote speech for the "Global Call to Protect Religious Freedom" event at the United Nations in New York. Grassfire finds that particularly ironic, since Christians seem to find themselves increasingly under fire from the radical Left here at home.
LGBTQ activists attack anyone who doesn't agree with or support their lifestyle and agenda. Even though the Supreme Court recently ruled to protect religious freedom, examples of the Left's hysterics against Christians who refuse to compromise their faith can be found across America.
Bakers, photographers, florists and other artists who don't want to use their talents in support of same-sex weddings have been sued, punished and/or driven out of business. Even a T-shirt maker who didn't want to print a message that violate his faith has became a target.
High school girls who don't want to share a bathroom or locker room -- or compete on the athletic field -- with biological males have been mocked and ridiculed as bigots. The owner of a funeral home who refuses to let a male employee dress as a woman is also in the radical Left's crosshairs.
The challenges these Christian Americans face will just be the tip of the iceberg if Democrats have their way and the so-called "Equality Act" is signed into law. As evangelist Franklin Graham said recently, the legislation "has nothing to do with equality, but is about pushing the LGBTQ agenda down the throats of the American people."
The radical Left is already hard at work trying to punish people of faith who won't march in lockstep with their homosexual and transgender agenda. Can you imagine what will happen -- how bad things will get for Christians -- if and when this horrible bill becomes law? Will you be the next conservative American the Left attacks for refusing to violate your faith?
+ + Take Immediate Action To Stop The "Equality" Act!
LGBT activists in Congress are in the process of pushing a series of "sneak attack" bills that implement the Equality Act in piecemeal fashion. Leftists want their pro-homosexual, pro-transgender agenda passed with little or no resistance and public notice! That's why we're empowering our team members to take immediate action.
Thankfully, the dangerous "main bill" is being held up by Republican leadership in the Senate. But Democrats are at work behind the scenes, trying to criminalize Christianity by embedding key components of the Equality Act in "piecemeal" legislation. These smaller bills could impact churches, religious organizations, ministries, Christian schools and individuals who dare to stand against the radical LGBTQ agenda.
+ + "SNEAK ATTACK" bills specifically undermine religious liberties!
This SNEAK ATTACK legislation follows a similar pattern to the full Equality Act legislation -- the bill specifically targets people of faith and guts the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. By doing so, it puts people of faith at risk by removing any religious exemption as it relates to issues of sexual orientation or gender identity in the workplace, at school and in public places.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has even made the outrageous claim that religious freedom, which is guaranteed by the First Amendment, is nothing more than an excuse to discriminate.
That's why Grassfire has created the EQUALITY ACT SNEAK ATTACK FAXFIRE! You can instantly send your personalized message to 12 GOP Senators being targeted by LGBT extremists. We want to see 20,000 faxes delivered to the Senate THIS WEEK, as members of Congress continue working on their fall legislative agenda.

P.S. Again, a legislative SNEAK ATTACK is under way designed to pass the so-called "Equality Act" with no public accountability. Some of these SNEAK ATTACK bills specifically reject any religious-exemption claims and would force just about every business, church or public space to accommodate the LGBTQ agenda in some way. These bills are active in Congress NOW and will sneak through unless citizens take a stand. Go here to take action now:
