July 20 (UPI) -- The founder of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation said he has assembled a "litigation strike team" to challenge an amendment in the National Defense Authorization Act that would prohibit service members from communicating with his civil rights advocacy organization.
Michael "Mikey" Weinstein, a lawyer, and U.S. Air Force veteran who is the foundation president, said the provision violates military members' First Amendment rights to free speech and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
The New Mexico-based nonprofit works to protect the religious freedom rights of service members and protect them from discrimination, harassment and aggressive proselytizing.
