Congress: Confront Christian Nationalism and Enforce the Establishment Clause Text SIGN PQRBCO to 50409 — You swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. That oath now requires you to confront a growing and explicit threat to constitutional governance: Christian nationalism. Christian nationalism is not religious freedom. It is a political ideology that seeks to fuse government power with a single religious identity, elevating one faith above all others and redefining citizenship around belief rather than law. The Constitution was written precisely to prevent this outcome. The First Amendment protects the free exercise of religion by denying the government authority to endorse, promote, or impose it. That boundary has been breached. Federal agencies and senior officials have used official government platforms to advance explicitly Christian nationalist messages—declaring religious doctrine as national identity and framing state authority in theological terms. These are not personal expressions of faith. They are acts of government speech, delivered with public resources and institutional authority. When the executive branch adopts Christian nationalist rhetoric, it transforms religion from a protected liberty into a tool of power. The Founders understood the danger. They rejected religious tests for office. They wrote a Constitution without reference to God. They placed the Establishment Clause first in the Bill of Rights because they knew that once government claims divine sanction, accountability collapses and minority rights disappear. Christian nationalist narratives rely on false history and selective mythology, not constitutional law. Yet those narratives are now being operationalized through government institutions. That is not a cultural dispute—it is a constitutional violation. Congress has a duty to act as a check on executive overreach. You must require the immediate removal of Christian nationalist propaganda from all government-controlled websites and social media accounts. You must conduct oversight hearings to determine how these messages were approved, coordinated, and disseminated. And you must reaffirm, through enforceable action, that no administration may use the machinery of the state to promote religious supremacy. Neutrality is not silence. Inaction signals consent. If Congress allows Christian nationalism to embed itself in government practice, it abandons its role as guardian of constitutional order. The Establishment Clause has no force unless you are willing to enforce it. https://resist.bot/petitions/PQRBCO
