If passed, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act would carry a blanket exemption for the hiring practices of religious congregations, as well as schools with a primary purpose of worship. Summer camps, nursing homes, soup kitchens, charities, and other institutions linked to a congregation would not be exempt, unless they made a declaration of significant "religious tenets."
