New Christian Right

The New Christian Right is a political movement in the United States that emerged in the late 20th century, emphasizing conservative Christian values in public policy. It advocates for issues like opposition to abortion, same-sex marriage, and the promotion of prayer and religious influence in schools and government. This movement seeks to shape laws and societal norms to align with evangelical and conservative Christian beliefs, often aligning with Republican interests. It combines religious convictions with political activism, aiming to influence legislation and cultural practices in ways that reflect traditional Christian morals.
