Reach out directly. Your voice matters. Proverbs 29:2 — When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice.
As Acting Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division since January 2025, Warner directed the Justice Department to file a federal statement of interest in support of access to places of worship, publicly declaring: 'Every person should be free to worship and attend religious services without fear of violence, threats, or intimidation.' This filing is part of the Civil Rights Division's Religious Freedom in Focus program — which Warner oversees — using federal law-enforcement authority to defend Christian congregants and other believers' constitutional right to assemble for worship. His public posture explicitly frames freedom of worship as a protected right the federal government must actively enforce, directly reflecting the rubric's standard of defending free religious exercise from government or third-party interference.
As West Virginia Secretary of State (2017-2025), Warner consistently opposed automatic voter registration, same-day voter registration, and mail-in voting expansion. In March 2023 he withdrew West Virginia from the ERIC interstate voter-registration database, citing data-sharing and accuracy concerns — a firm voter-ID and anti-mass-mail-in posture matching the rubric standard.
