(LifeSiteNews) — A Catholic woman kicked off President Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission for denouncing Zionism has reposted LifeSiteNews’s petition in support of her.
The petition, which can be signed here, was created after Carrie Prejean Boller declared during the commission’s antisemitism hearing in Washington, D.C., that “I am a Catholic, and Catholics don’t embrace Zionism.”
“Thank you. I would rather die than surrender my faith in Christ, and be forced to bow to a foreign nation demanding I forsake the Truth. Christ is King,” she wrote on X, quote-tweeting LifeSiteNews.

“This is a gross overstepping of your role and leads me to believe you are acting in alignment with a Zionist political framework that hijacked the hearing, rather than in defense of religious liberty,” she wrote on X.
“Unless and until I receive written notice from the President of the United States requesting my removal, I will continue to defend religious freedom for all religions on this Commission.”
Dear Chairman Patrick,
I write in response to your public statement falsely claiming that you “removed” me from President Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission.

You did not appoint me to the… https://t.co/r4VoEXSrPp
