Atheists Start Pac To Elect Non-Religious Candidates

"Americans who count themselves among the "nones" — as in atheists, agnostics or those of no definite religious affiliation — have launched a new political action committee."

"The goal? To support the election of like-minded lawmakers or, at a minimum, candidates committed to upholding the constitutional separation between church and state."

"'The Freethought Equality Fund will work to elect the nones ... in addition to those who will work for our rights so we can finally have the representation in Congress we deserve,' said Maggie Ardiente of the American Humanist Association, at a Washington news conference Wednesday where the new PAC was rolled out."
