Brent Walker, executive director of the Baptist Joint Committee for Religious Liberty, said July 30 that U.S. Rep. John M. McHugh, a five-term Republican from New York, has a voting record that shows he is no friend to religious liberty.
Critics say John McHugh's voting record in Congress suggests he has little regard for separation of church and state.

Walker said McHugh, who is expected to be confirmed at the conclusion of hearings before the Senate Armed Services Committee, has a background that is "generally well-suited for the job," but his voting record "raises serious questions about his understanding of the constitutional restraints on government in matters of religion."
