I've never met a single job creator who's ever said to me I can't wait until government raises taxes again so I can go out and create a job.

Religious freedom is often referred to as America's first freedom. Our country was founded by religious exiles and built on the belief that God has given all people certain inalienable rights. Government's role in society is to protect these rights and ensure that we are safe from religious persecution and discrimination.
