From: Matt Howes, National Internet Organizer, ACLU To: ACLU Action Network Members Date: June 19, 2003 In another attack on religious liberty and civil rights, proposed legislation would allow employers in the Head Start program to discriminate against teachers and parent volunteers on the basis of religion. If the proposed legislation passed, thousands of teachers could lose their jobs and parent volunteers could be blocked from participating in their children's education because of their religious affiliation. It would furthermore violate the Constitution by allowing federal dollars to fund religious discrimination in hiring for government-funded jobs. It is important that a program of this scale and significance protects the religious freedom of teachers and participating families. Take Action!
