Sasse on Religious Liberty: One’s Faith “Isn’t Any of the Government’s Business”




Speaking before the Senate Judiciary Committee on the first day of Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation hearings, Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE) stated: “Religious liberty is the basic idea that how you worship is none of the government’s business. Government can wage wars, government can write parking tickets, but government cannot save souls.” Sasse was responding to critics of Barrett’s Catholic faith.
