Account Closed: Banks and Businesses Cancel Christians: 'I'd Heard of This Happening to Literally Dozens of Groups'"...It also tells me we need to get people of faith in the boardroom. I think we need to start campaigns to get a person of faith on every major corporate board in America." -Religious Freedom Ambassador Sam Brownback [CBN News] When the National Committee for Religious Freedom, headed by former US Senator and Religious Freedom Ambassador Sam Brownback, needed a bank account, they went to JPMorgan Chase. After only a few weeks they learned their account had been closed. (Screengrab image: Sam Brownback) Multi-Faith Charity Has Its Account Closed. Why? "I went in to make a deposit at a branch here in Kansas about three or four weeks after we'd opened up the account," Brownback told us, "And the teller there said 'That account's been closed.' And I go, 'What?' and they said, 'That account's been closed. Your funds will be sent to you in a couple of weeks.' And then later they came back and said, 'Well, if you'll disclose who gives more than 10% of your funds to you and your criteria for supporting candidates as a 501c4 we'll consider re-opening up the account.' Brownback says he received an apology letter but still doesn't know why the bank made the decision. JP Morgan Chase: This Was Not Religious or Political Discrimination CBN News contacted JP Morgan Chase about the incident, and they assured us that, "We would never discontinue a relationship because of religious or political affiliation, and we didn't with this client…We're not proud of how we handled communicating with this client about what we needed from them, and have apologized verbally and in writing." Needed in 'Woke' Corporate Boardrooms: People of Faith It used to be that companies only wanted your business. These days, they may not, if they think you believe in the wrong things. Since the 2020 election, banks and corporations have denied service to some Trump supporters, and Christian employees continue to be fired for speaking out about their faith. This year the Canadian government weaponized its financial system against citizens protesting COVID-19 restrictions, freezing their bank accounts. US Banking Laws Help Cover for Discrimination "I'd heard of this happening to literally dozens of groups," Brownback says. "I've had people tell me they got de-banked or an insurance company denied them."
