The ACLU will not file a legal challenge to President Donald Trump’s executive order on religious liberty despite an aggressive statement promising litigation early Thursday afternoon.
The civil rights group issued a declaration promising a lawsuit shortly after the order was signed in a Rose Garden ceremony at the White House. They accused the administration of empowering their clerical allies on the religious right.
“The actions taken today are a broadside to our country’s long-standing commitment to the separation of church and state,” the organization said. “Whether by executive order or through backroom deals, it’s clear that the Trump administration and Congressional leadership are using religion as a wedge to further divide the country and permit discrimination.”
But by late Thursday, the group concluded the order was little more than a “faux sop to religious conservatives.”
