Hill briefing: "Christian Nationalism is on the ballot in 2022"
Ahead of the midterm elections, leading experts gathered on September 28, 2022, for the first congressional briefing focused exclusively on Christian nationalism. Interfaith Alliance president Rev.

Raushenbush described Christian nationalism as "the single greatest threat to the religious liberty of all Americans to exercise freedom of conscience in matters of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."
Hosted in partnership with Congressman Jamie Raskin’s office, speakers included Wajahat Ali, author of Fear, Inc. and Go Back to Where You Came From and Other Helpful Recommendations on Becoming American; voting rights advocate Tayhlor Coleman; Connie Ryan, executive director of Interfaith Alliance of Iowa; and Rev. Dr. Richard Cizik, president of Evangelicals for Democracy.
