Corporate Hostility Toward Christians

There is increasing concern that banking giant JP Morgan Chase is engaged in discriminatory anti-Christian policies. Nineteen Republican state attorneys general have sent a letter to Jamie Dimon, JP Morgan's CEO, accusing the company of a "pattern of discrimination," including denying banking services to customers because of their religious or political views. This follows another letter sent on March 15th by 14 Republican state treasurers raising similar concerns.

In 2022, The National Committee for Religious Freedom had its account at JP Morgan suddenly closed by the bank. The group is led by respected Sam Brownback, a former Kansas senator, governor, and ambassador-at-large for religious freedom appointed by former President Trump. JP Morgan insists there was no discrimination. I have talked to former Ambassador Brownback personally and find his accusations credible.

Some shareholders in the company are also concerned about the allegations of discrimination. An investor has submitted a resolution requiring the bank to launch an investigation of religious and political discrimination at JP Morgan. The shareholder meeting is May 16th and the bank has urged a "NO" vote. Why are they afraid of what an investigation will show?

Many U.S. corporations such as Disney are prioritizing the LGBTQ agenda. Others are regularly signaling their support for abortion on demand. Employers, shareholders, and other stakeholders who are pro-life and have faith-based objections to LGBTQ demands are ignored or worse. JP Morgan recently refused to fill out a survey that screens companies for "biblically responsible" management. At the same time, the company is vocal about the high marks it receives in the yearly rankings of the Human Rights Campaign, an LGBTQ pressure group.

JDFI commends the state attorneys general and treasurers who are insisting on answers from JP Morgan. Diversity and inclusion are shams if Christians and other faiths are excluded.

Planned Trans?

Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion provider, has found another profit center. Not content with making money only by destroying innocent life in the womb, the organization has aggressively expanded into the growing "gender transition" industry, which also threatens the well-being of children.

Biden's War on Women

The Biden administration hopes the abortion issue will lead to his re-election in November. Women voters may want to think twice, however. Late last Friday, the administration declared war on women by distorting and destroying Title IX, a landmark 1972 law that bans sex discrimination in any school that receives federal funding. Title IX guarantees equal treatment for women in every aspect of education from the classroom to sports. Feminists hailed its passage 52 years ago, but the law may have a fatal omission that the Biden administration just drove a truckload of "wokeness" through: It didn't define what a woman is.

Religious Left Smears Christian Conservatives

As we have repeatedly warned, there is a deliberate effort to intimidate, shame, smear, and even threaten conservative Christians out of the political and public policy arena. It is understandable that the radical, secular Left would want to do that. But it is outrageous that some so-called "progressive Christians" are lending their support to this effort.
