Representation in Congress
There is only one member of Congress who identifies as being "unaffiliated with any religion." No Congress member has ever been an open Atheist. In fact, 89.7% of Congressional Democrats are from the Judeo-Christian tradition. 100% of Congressional Republicans are from the Judeo-Christian tradition (250 Christians, 2 Jews). The religiously unaffiliated make up 23% of the US & .2% of Congress. Check out this Pew Research Survey for more data!
