Host Rev. Welton Gaddy will be joined by People For the American Way Senior Fellow Peter Montgomery, an expert chronicler of the Religious Right. Conservative evangelicals overwhelmingly voted for President Trump, and many political observers view his latest executive order as payback. Early coverage suggested that the order would roll back LGBT rights, but the final text focused on undermining the Johnson Amendment, which prevents houses of worship from being turned into tools for partisan politics. Peter will help us make sense of the order, its implications and what the Religious Right hopes to achieve with Trump in the Oval Office.
