President Trump Protecting Free Speech on College Campuses
“These are the things you shall do: Speak each man the truth to his neighbor…”
Zechariah 8:16
Recently, President Trump invited Secretary of Education, Betsy Devos, Secretary of Health and Human Services, Alex Azar, and a group of college students to the White House to witness his signing of an official
Executive Order to protect free speech on college campuses.
In light of the growing hostility on campuses against people of faith, this is a welcome order. Among other things, his Executive Order directs 12 individual federal agencies to add free speech to the list of requirements that colleges have to meet before receiving federal grant money.
In his order, issued on: March 21, 2019, the President said:
We reject oppressive speech codes, censorship, political correctness, and every other attempt by the hard left to stop people from challenging ridiculous and dangerous ideas. These ideas are dangerous.
Instead, we believe in free speech, including online and including on campus.
– President Donald J. Trump
PROMOTING FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS: President Trump is committed to promoting and protecting free speech on college campuses.
- This Executive Order promotes free speech and orders agencies to take appropriate steps to ensure that college and university campuses are places of free thought and debate.
- The Trump Administration believes that public schools should fulfill their obligation to uphold the First Amendment and private schools should comply with their stated institutional policies regarding free speech, and that schools should promote free speech and be transparent about their speech policies.
We pray:
- At a time when these freedoms are under fire, we thank You, Lord, for a President who is upholding the First Amendment Rights of college students, and keeping the rights of all Americans as his priority.
IMPROVING TRANSPARENCY: The Trump Administration ensures students access to information they need to make the higher education decisions that work best for them.
- This Executive Order provides students with the necessary information to make smart and informed decisions about their postsecondary education.
- The Department of Education (DOE) will make improvements to its mobile application so borrowers are better informed about loan balances, payments, and repayment options and expand data available to help students better understand their educational options.
- Improved transparency will help improve student outcomes and accelerate degree completion, reducing barriers and saving students money.
- This Executive Order requires the DOE to develop policy proposals that help ensure colleges will share more of the financial risk associated with student loans.
- The Trump Administration will explore options for a common sense approach to debt collection.
We pray:
- That these measures, which are beneficial to students, might be employed and utilized well, and that measurable results be shown, to support our President’s Executive Order on their behalf!
ADDRESSING STUDENT LOAN DEBT: Across the country, students are taking on massive student loan debt that inhibit them from prospering in today’s booming economy.
- Rising tuition and student debt levels make post-secondary education untenable for many Americans.
- Many students with loans are taking on far too much debt and pursuing degrees that do not lead to well-paying jobs, thereby making repayment difficult.
- Students need better information about prices and outcomes of postsecondary options so they can make better and well-informed choices.
- Further, improving access to data will help allow taxpayers to hold schools accountable for student outcomes.
We pray:
- Asking for Your divine intervention and protection over our students’ lives. Give them the discernment, wisdom, strength, character and courage to navigate their way through an education system that might bring potential of debt for years to come!
Several students shared about their personal stories that emphasize the need for this Executive Order.
One of the most touching was by Polly Olsen, a student at Northeast Wisconsin Technical College, who was handing out Valentines with a faith-based message to let people know they are loved and cared for, when she was told to stop by schools officials. Messages were: “You are special! God is love!” 1 John 4:11, “Jesus Loves you!” Romans 5:8 and “You are loved and cared for!” 1 Peter 5:7 The Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty (WILL), representing Polly, accused the school of “muzzling” its client due to the religious nature of her Valentines cards and filed a summary judgment brief asking that this case be declared “unconstitutional on its face.” Polly said: “Freedom of speech is near and dear to my heart. My mother told me, while she was homeschooling me, that I would have to know what my First Amendment rights were because someday they would be violated and I would have to stand up for them.”
We pray
- That believers like Polly Olsen will continue to find the strength to stand strong in their faith as Your witnesses. Protect them all from lies, deception and manipulation as You cover them with your Blood!
- That Polly and her defense team are overwhelmingly VICTORIOUS in this case, and that it sets a “precedent” that will deter any future threats against student free speech!
Education (the process of receiving or giving systematic instruction) is foundational to our society, and must be rooted and grounded in TRUTH, not in the false and subversive teachings that have crept into and infiltrated our schools in so many ways. The TRUTH that we have received from our forefathers must be guarded and protected so that the generations to come will not be led astray! Our first President, George Washington, warned:
“If the freedom of speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep, to the slaughter.”
We pray:
- That our educational system is cleansed of all unrighteous elements and that TRUTH once again becomes preeminent in our classrooms, from preschool through college, and America will thrive on it!
- That those who defend the cause of freedom are blessed and protected
- That we all might VIGILANTLY watch and pray and then act when threats come against our freedoms as Americans, that we might be one nation, under our GOOD SHEPHERD, who loves and guides us.

Specific Prayer Topic for Today
Praying for our Supreme Court and the Judicial System
The Supreme Court has rejected efforts by gun-rights groups to delay the implementation of a newly enforced federal ban on firearm “bump stocks”…(an attachment that allows a semi-automatic rifle to fire hundreds of rounds per minute, like a machine gun… originally created to help people with disabilities to fire a gun). On February 20, 2018, President Trump directed the Justice Department to ban “bump stocks” which put the Trump administration in an unusual position of being against gun-rights groups.
We pray:
- For our President, who has said: “We must move past clichés and tired debates and focus on evidence-based solutions and security measures that actually work.”
- For President Trump and all those with the ability to address this issue, to receive wisdom to navigate these “troubled waters” pertaining to public safety, while preserving our 2nd Amendment rights:
“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
