Debra Eichenbaum is a Legislative Assistant at the Religious Action Center. She is a graduate of Brandeis University.

Concerns about the 1st amendment implications of the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives have been raging from its beginning. Now, the former Deputy Director of the Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives, David Kuo, is coming forward to share his insights about the office.

In his new book, Tempting Faith: An Inside Story of Political Seduction, Kuo claims that fears about the office’s preferential treatment of organizations from particular faith traditions are in fact true. MSNBC’s news reporter Keith Olbermann had an exclusive report on Kuo’s new book.
