AI Summary: This is a policy document - specifically an Executive Order establishing the Religious Liberty Commission. This regulation creates a Religious Liberty Commission composed of up to 14 members appointed by the President to study and promote religious liberty in the United States. The Commission will produce a comprehensive report examining religious liberty foundations, current threats, and strategies for preserving religious freedom. It will include ex officio members like the Attorney General and Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, and will also establish three advisory boards: Religious Leaders, Lay Leaders, and Legal Experts. The Commission is set to operate until July 4, 2026 (the 250th anniversary of American Independence), with members serving without compensation but eligible for travel expenses. The Commission's specific focus areas include examining First Amendment rights for religious institutions and individuals, investigating attacks on houses of worship, exploring conscience protections, and advising the White House Faith Office on religious liberty policies. The Department of Justice will provide administrative support, and the Commission aims to identify and address what it perceives as emerging threats to religious liberty in the United States.
