S 894 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Do No Harm Act

This bill amends the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) to clarify that RFRA does not block enforcement of key federal laws protecting civil rights and safety. Specifically, it adds an exception preventing RFRA claims from overriding laws that prohibit discrimination (like the Civil Rights Act of 1964), ensure workplace protections (such as the Family and Medical Leave Act), prevent child exploitation, or guarantee healthcare access. The amendment ensures religious freedom arguments cannot be used to challenge these existing legal requirements. It also clarifies that RFRA does not apply to lawsuits against government entities seeking relief for violations of these protections.
