“I am particularly frustrated that President Obama still has done nothing to ban hiring bias by publicly funded religious charities,” Lynn said in a statement. “That’s the 800-pound gorilla in the room… President Barack Obama signed an executive order Wednesday to further reform the White House Office of Faith-based Initiatives created under former President George...
