Abstract

The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, an independent, bipartisan body, was created to provide public oversight of the development and implementation of religious freedom policies. Its mandate is to monitor religious freedom worldwide, speak directly to the public, and provide policy recommendations, which may or may not be followed by the foreign policy apparatus. It functions best when focusing on a small number of countries or issues on which it can rely on bipartisan support within the Congress. The Commission should clarify its role in the policy making process and develop creative solutions for engaging potential allies abroad.
