“We appreciate and fully endorse the President’s call to reopen the churches. Churches are essential organizations; they provide essential services that are desperately needed during these desperate times. As President Trump said, ‘we need more prayer in America, not less.’ The discriminatory labeling of churches as nonessential by many governors across the nation has infringed our rights and injured our recovery from this terrible pandemic. It is high time to reopen the churches.”
President Trump on Friday announced that new Centers for Disease Control guidance will classify houses of worship as “essential,” as he called on governors to allow them to open “right now” after being closed during the coronavirus lockdowns.
Trump announced the policy for churches, synagogues and mosques, during a short briefing at the White House.
