The Trump administration has issued new guidelines allowing federal employees to openly express their religious beliefs at work, including displaying religious items and engaging in discussions about faith. The policy, detailed in a memo from the Office of Personnel Management, specifically mentions Jewish prayer phylacteries, or tefillin, as items that can be kept on desks and used during breaks. Employees are permitted to form prayer groups, invite colleagues to religious services, and even pray over patients in certain settings, provided they respect coworkers' wishes to opt out of religious discussions. The move has drawn criticism from some Jewish groups and leaders, who see it as part of a broader effort to blur the line between church and state, while supporters argue it protects religious freedom in the workplace.
