Secretary Noem, Department of Homeland Security, said DHS joined other cabinet officials for the first meeting of an "Anti Christian Bias Task Force" led by the Department of Justice.

In a weekly recap, Secretary Noem said the department is "committed to defending religious freedom across America," linking DHS participation in the task force to that goal. She described the session as the task force's first meeting and said she joined "fellow cabinet members" for it.

The task force was identified in the remarks as led by the Department of Justice; no statutory citation, charter, membership list, or next steps were provided in the remarks. The transcript did not specify whether the task force is a temporary working group, an interagency committee established by executive order, or another formal administrative mechanism.

The comments occurred as part of a broader DHS weekly recap and did not include further detail on the task force's agenda, deliverables, or timetable. No formal actions, resolutions, or funding items tied to DHS participation were stated in the transcript.
