President Trump is set to visit Washington, D.C.’s Museum of the Bible on Monday morning.
Trump will also give remarks while at the museum amid a meeting of his Religious Liberty Commission.
The administration signaled Trump's visit is intended to underscore its defense of religious liberty.
“The previous administration abused the federal government’s power to interfere with Americans’ First Amendment right to religious freedom. They even used the Department of Justice to target peaceful people of faith, specifically Christians,” White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers said in a statement obtained by Libby Dan of NewsNation, The Hill's sister network.
“This is exactly why President Trump established the Religious Liberty Commission to stop the emerging threats against Americans’ inalienable right to practice their religion freely,” Rogers added. “President Trump is the greatest defender for people of faith in modern history and will continue to protect and promote America’s founding principle of religious freedom.”
Trump created the Religious Liberty Commission in May via an executive order. The president said in the order that federal, state and local policies have endangered the U.S.’s tradition of religious liberty in the past few years.
The president’s visit to the museum will also come in the wake of White House officials launching a review of some of the Smithsonian’s museums with an aim of “alignment” with Trump’s “directive to celebrate American exceptionalism, remove divisive or partisan narratives, and restore confidence in our shared cultural institutions.”
