THE STAND Blog is the place to find personal insights and perspectives from writers who respond to current cultural topics by promoting faith and defending the family.
THE STAND Magazine is AFA’s monthly publication that filters the culture’s endless stream of information through a grid of scriptural truth. It is chock-full of new stories, feature articles, commentaries, and more that encourage Christians to step out in faith and action.
Your U.S. Senator will soon consider a $1.2 trillion tax-and-spend bill (HR 3684) called the "Invest in America Act." Cloaked as an infrastructure bill, the Democratic party's bill would divest Americans of their First Amendment, constitutional right to religious liberty!
This "divestment" act would advance the destructive goal of radical Democrats by including provisions of the Equality Act we’'ve told you about in the past. This provision would tie the 1964 Civil Rights Act to special privileges based on sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI). And unfortunately, some Republicans are lining up to support this "deal"!
Last week, these 17 Republican Senators joined every Senate Democrat in voting to proceed to a vote on the bill: Blunt (MO), Burr (NC), Capito (WV), Cassidy (LA), Collins (ME), Cramer (ND), Crapo (ID), Graham (SC), Grassley (IA), Hoeven (ND), McConnell (KY), Murkowski (AK), Portman (OH), Risch (ID), Romney (UT), Tillis (NC), and Young (IN).

Christians have been under attack by the radical, sexual deviancy agenda in an attempt to destroy the businesses of florists, bakers, and t-shirt makers. And that is only their starting point. We've seen how destructive their agenda has been on women sports by allowing males claiming to be female to compete in girls’ sports in high school and college. This 'DIVESTMENT Act' would terminate women's rights, privacy, and safety.
Reports also indicate that Democrats, at the insistence of President Joe Biden, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, will pair this "DIVESTMENT Act" with Senator Bernie Sanders' bill to mandate universal pre-K beginning at age 3! It also includes teacher certification programs to promote and/or mandate Critical Race Theory and gender ideology.
