From: USAF Member’s E-Mail Address Withheld
Thank you very much for your support this morning. Please use this letter as you wish to advocate for continued religious freedom within the military and the United States.
I’ve been a member of the US Air Force for several years, and I wrote MRFF this morning in tears from the stress of dealing with a workplace issue regarding what I considered to be borderline enforcement of Christian religious traditions in the workplace.
Within 20 minutes of sending my email, I received a response from the Director, Mikey Weinstein, providing a phone number and asking me to call him at a certain time. When I did, he promptly responded, asked me several questions about the issue and was ready to offer support of the level that seemed appropriate to the situation.
What I was looking for wasn’t a national-level response or mobilization, but a simple read on the situation from an external and informed perspective. He offered that and also advised me of different ways I might address the issue in the workplace. What’s more, within a few minutes, he emailed me the Air Force Instruction that would support my assertions.
This is not the first time I’ve turned to the MRFF for support, but it’s the first time I’ve contacted them. I’m so pleased and even feel honored by the respectful response I received. Previously, I’ve looked through items on the website, which is also very comprehensive. I would encourage ANYONE who is seeking advice and support about a freedom of religion issue in a military workplace to contact MRFF.
Very Respectfully,
(Please withhold my name from public distribution)
