The USCIRF is an advisory and Consultant body that advises the US Congress and administration on issues related to international religious freedom. Although the implementation of USCIRF has a little ideological impact, it serves as a conscience-Keeper for the legislature and executive, the two branches of the US government. Since the USCIRF differs from the Department of State, the Department's Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom is an ex-officio Commissioner who does not have the right to vote. A professional, non-partisan employee supports the work of USCIRF. Let's test your knowledge about the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom USCIRF.
