Congressional Research Service summary, version: Introduced in House (Mar 6, 2025)
Do No Harm Act
This bill prohibits the application of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 (RFRA) to specified federal laws or the implementation of such laws. Currently, RFRA prohibits the government from substantially burdening a person's exercise of religion even if the burden results from a rule of general applicability, except in furtherance of a compelling governmental interest when using the least restrictive means.
Under the bill, RFRA is inapplicable to laws or the implementation of laws that
• protect against discrimination or require the promotion of equal opportunity (e.g., the Civil Rights Act of 1964);
• require employers to provide wages, other compensation, or benefits, including leave;
• protect collective activity in the workplace;
