Congressman French Hill, Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee and a devoted Catholic from Arkansas, shares how God called him to Washington, D.C., to protect life and defend religious freedom—both at home and abroad. On Religious Freedom Day 2019, Congressman Hill sponsored a resolution urging the Egyptian government to improve treatment of persecuted Coptic Christians. He emphasizes the importance of supporting all faith communities, especially amid challenges like pandemic restrictions on churches. Rooted in a strong Catholic family tradition and active in his home parish, the Cathedral of St. Andrew in Little Rock, Hill also helps organize the National Prayer Breakfast, fostering faith and fellowship on Capitol Hill.
