Where Faith Is Welcome: States That Still Value Religious Liberty

In progressive states, religious freedom has quietly become one of the first casualties of political correctness. During the COVID lockdowns, churches were shut down while liquor stores and casinos stayed open. Businesses were fined for refusing to participate in ceremonies that violated their faith. Parents were maligned for raising their kids with traditional moral values. For millions of Americans, the message was loud and clear: if your beliefs don’t align with the state’s agenda, keep them to yourself—or face the consequences.

But not all states have abandoned America’s first freedom. In conservative strongholds across the country, faith still plays a vital role in public life—and religious liberty isn’t just tolerated, it’s protected. States like Mississippi, Texas, West Virginia, and Arkansas are reaffirming the foundational importance of faith, family, and freedom.

In 2025, Alabama passed a law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in public school classrooms, reminding students that morality isn’t subjective and values aren’t up for constant reinvention. Louisiana followed suit, while Arkansas enacted legislation mandating public schools teach the dangers of communism—an ideology that often begins by undermining religion.

These policies aren’t about forcing faith—they’re about defending it. In red states, your right to live out your religious convictions doesn’t end at your front door. Whether it’s resisting radical gender ideology in schools, defending conscience rights in medicine and business, or ensuring churches stay open during crises, conservative states are taking action where blue states have only hostility.

That makes a difference not only in policy, but in culture. In red states, Sunday still means something. Family is still sacred. Community still matters. Public life isn’t sanitized of faith—it’s shaped by it.

For many families, that’s the deciding factor. They’re tired of apologizing for their beliefs, tired of feeling like outsiders in their own communities, and tired of watching their kids grow up in environments that mock everything they hold dear. So they’re relocating to places where their values aren’t ridiculed—they’re reflected.
