SEC. 610. RELIGIOUS LIBERTY. 
"°*®' 
(a) FINDINGS.—The Congress finds that— 
(1) the liberties protected by our Constitution include reli-
gious liberty protected by the first amendment; 
(2) citizens of the United States profess the beliefs of almost 
every conceivable religion; 
(3) Congress has historically protected religious expression 
even from governmental action not intended to be hostile to 
religion; 
(4) the Supreme Court has written that "the free exercise 
of religion means, first and foremost, the right to believe and 
profess whatever religious doctrine one desires"; 
(5) the Supreme Court has firmly settled that under our 
Constitution the public expression of ideas may not be prohib-
ited merely because the content of the ideas is offensive to 
some; 
(6) Congress enacted the Religious Freedom Restoration 
Act of 1993 to restate and make clear again our intent and 
position that religious liberty is and should forever be granted 
PUBLIC LAW 103-317—AUG. 26, 1994 
108 STAT. 1775 
protection from unwarranted and unjustified government intru-
sions and burdens; 
(7) the Equal Emplo3mient Opportunity Commission has 
written proposed guidehnes to title VII of the Civil Rights 
Act of 1964, published in the Federal Register on October 
1, 1993, that expand the definition of religious harassment 
beyond established legal standards set forth by the Supreme 
Court, and that may result in the infringement of religious 
liberty; 
(8) such guidelines do not appropriately resolve issues 
related to religious liberty and religious expression in the work-
place; 
(9) properly drawn guidelines for the determination of reli-
gious harassment should provide appropriate guidance to 
employers and employees and assist in the continued preserva-
tion of religious liberty as guaranteed by the first amendment; 
(10) the Commission states in its proposed guidelines that 
it retains wholly separate guidelines for the determination of 
sexual harassment because the Commission believes that sexual 
harassment raises issues about human interaction that are 
to some extent unique; and 
(11) the subject of religious harassment also raises issues 
about human interaction that are to some extent unique in 
comparison to other harassment. 
(b) CATEGORY OF REUGIOUS HARASSMENT IN PROPOSED GUIDE-
LINES.—^For purposes of issuing final regulations under title VII 
of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 in connection with the proposed 
guidelines published by the Equal Employment 
Opportunity 
Commission on October 1, 1993 (58 Fed. Reg. 51266), the Chair-
person of the Equal Emplo3nnent Opportunity Commission shall 
ensure that— 
(1) the category of religion shall be withdrawn from the 
proposed guidelines at this time; 
(2) any new guidelines for the determination of religious 
harassment shall be drafted so as to make explicitly clear 
that symbols or expressions of religious belief consistent with 
the first amendment and the Religious Freedom Restoration 
Act of 1993 are not to be restricted and do not constitute 
proof of harassment; 
(3) the Commission shsdl hold public hearings on such 
new proposed guidelines; and 
(4) the Commission shall receive additional public comment 
before issuing similar new regulations.
