This Friday (September 30) is International Blasphemy Rights Day, which highlights the struggle of religious minorities and nonbelievers across the globe. Many countries maintain prohibitions on criticizing religion and punish offenders with fines, imprisonment, and even the death penalty.

Join us by urging your member of Congress to call for the repeal of blasphemy laws around the world....
