In today’s political environment, victories are rare in Washington, D.C., but with your recent help, we have good news to share. An attack against religious free speech on radio, television, cable, and satellite has been averted.
In late 2021, President Biden nominated the radical Gigi Sohn to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). A former FCC official indicated, “Her public animus towards mainstream conservative outlets renders her unfit to serve as a regulator over the communications industry,” and, “the White House praised Sohn when announcing her nomination in October...noting she would be the first openly LGBTIQ+ FCC commissioner.”
AFA issued an alert asking supporters to contact and urge their senators to stop the nomination. With the help of faithful AFA supporters contacting their senators, Sohn’s nomination never came up for a vote, causing her nomination to expire on the 2021 calendar. However, President Biden renominated Sohn again in January, and her nomination was scheduled to come before the U.S. Senate Commerce Committee today, February 2. The good news is that Gigi Sohn’s nomination was pulled due to her radical views and alleged scandalous ties to a broadcasting lawsuit.
We are grateful for all the AFA supporters who contacted their senators and who financially support the ministry of AFA.
AFA is a non-profit ministry dedicated to transforming culture in ways that reflect biblical values.
