Summary
President Donald Trump has established the White House Faith Office through Executive Order 14205, aiming to empower faith-based organizations, community groups, and houses of worship to better serve American families and communities. This office will work to ensure these entities have equal opportunities to compete for federal funding and will promote religious liberty by addressing any governmental religious discrimination. Politically, this move could bolster support from religious communities, but it may also spark legal debates over the separation of church and state and the extent of religious involvement in government-funded programs.
