TELECONFERENCE: Over 1200 Christian Women Leaders Condemn Trump's Abusive Remarks

 

WASHINGTON, D.C.  -- In a response to Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s abhorrent remarks regarding sexual assault, Christian women from diverse backgrounds are urging all religious leaders to take a stand and help their communities heal from the sins of sexual violence and misogyny.

 

The letter, spearheaded by Rev. Jennifer Butler, CEO of Faith in Public Life Action Fund, says that Christian leaders must refuse to accept Mr. Trump’s violent speech about women as a minor mistake or an innocent attempt to be “macho."
