Americans United for Separation of Church and State - Greater Houston Chapter
If you care about religious freedom, if you care about racial justice, if you care about LGBTQ equality, if you care about reproductive freedom, if you care about democracy--you should be an outspoken champion of church-state separation. If you live in the Greater Houston area, you should stand with our chapter.
Texans Say 'No' to Christian Nationalism
Americans United is fighting Christian Nationalism in Texas. In two lawsuits, AU is representing a total of 31 multifaith and nonreligious Texan families who are suing to block a new Ten Commandments law that requires all public elementary and secondary schools to display the Ten Commandments in every classroom. As Texan pastor Griff Martin put it, “Posting the Ten Commandments in public schools is un-American” and part of a “Christian Nationalist movement that “confuses God with power.”
Americans United is the only organization dedicated solely to defending the separation of church and state. We are the shield protecting the foundational American principle of freedom of religion — including the right to believe or not believe — for all.
