What is the ERLC’s Public Policy Agenda?
Manage episode 397485310 series 1046381
The mission entrusted to the ERLC by the Southern Baptist Convention includes applying Christian principles to moral and social problems and questions of public policy and promoting religious liberty. One of the ways we do this is through our public policy advocacy, both in Washington, D.C., and throughout individual states.
Every year, we compile and release a public policy agenda, highlighting the key pieces of federal legislation our staff is watching and working on within our four categories of priority: life, religious liberty, marriage and family, and human dignity. More recently, we’ve also started assembling a state policy agenda, focusing on our cooperation with Baptist state conventions in advocating at the state level.
On today’s episode, you’ll hear from Hannah Daniel, our director of public policy who is based in D.C., and Brent Leatherwood, president of the ERLC. They’ll explain the importance of our policy agendas and highlight major pieces of legislation that matter to Southern Baptists.
The ERLC podcast is a production of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission.
It is produced by Lindsay Nicolet and Elizabeth Bristow.
Technical production is provided by Owens Productions.
It is edited and mixed by Mark Owens.
