The following statement regarding the removal of Carrie Prejean Boller from the President’s Religious Liberty Commission may be attributed to Kelly Shackelford, President, CEO, and Chief Counsel for First Liberty Institute, and a member of the Commission.

The following statement regarding “Guidance on Constitutionally Protected Prayer and Religious Expression in Public Elementary and Secondary Schools” issued by the Trump Administration may be attributed to Kelly Shackelford, President, CEO, and Chief Counsel for First Liberty Institute:
We thank President Trump for his strong efforts to protect America’s first freedom—religious freedom. These revisions to the Guidelines on Prayer and Religious Expression ensure that the religious liberty of students in public schools is protected. The Supreme Court made it clear in our victory for Coach Joe Kennedy that America’s students and teachers are free to exercise their faith in school. We will continue to fight to ensure that every school in the nation gets that message.
