There is no other.
CEA is the only Christian business-focused lobby house in the country. Not one of a few. The only one.
Every day, laws are written that decide how you hire, how you operate, and whether you can run your business by conviction. The largest corporations have teams in every statehouse and a permanent seat at the table in Washington. You have a business to run.
That gap is where your freedoms get legislated away.
CEA closes it. One membership puts the same voice at the table that billion-dollar corporations take for granted. A voice built for Christian employers. The only one of its kind in America.
What No Single Employer Can Do Alone
A small or mid-sized Christian employer has no lobbyist in Washington. No government affairs team tracking legislation across all 50 states. No relationships with lawmakers built over years of principled engagement.
CEA has all of it. And when you join, so do you.
You stop watching policy happen to you. You start shaping it.
Two Ways CEA Fights for You
Your membership works on two levels. Both matter. Both are already moving.
Every Member Is Covered
The moment you join, CEA's lobbying machine goes to work on your behalf. You do not lift a finger to benefit from it.
- ✓ Bill tracking, state and federal. We monitor legislation across all 50 states and in Congress, so no mandate reaches your business as a surprise.
- ✓ Active lobby efforts. CEA testifies, drafts model policy, and works lawmakers directly to advance bills that protect Christian employers and block the ones that threaten you.
- ✓ Biblical Business Index. Know exactly where lawmakers stand on the values that shape your business.
- ✓ Grassroots chapter network. A coordinated base of Christian employers, organized where decisions actually get made.
This is the baseline. Every member. Every day. No extra ask.
Your Own Fight, Our Team
Then there are the moments the baseline cannot cover. A regulation aimed at your industry. An agency letter with your company's name on it. A bill in your state that would end how you operate.
When you face your own specific government relations issue, CEA becomes your dedicated government relations team. Not a hotline. Not a form letter. A team that steps into the room with you and carries the fight as if it were our own.
- ✓ Direct engagement with the lawmakers and agencies involved in your issue
- ✓ Strategy built around your business, your industry, and your convictions
- ✓ Coordination across state legislatures, Congress, and federal agencies
- ✓ The full weight of the only Christian business lobby house in the country, focused on your problem
The largest corporations pay hundreds of thousands a year for this kind of representation. You get it because you stand with a movement that already has the relationships, the strategy, and the reach.
Move From Awareness to Influence
Most Christian employers find out about a threat after it becomes law. By then, the fight is already lost. That is the difference between knowing and moving.
Watching Alone
- ✗ You read about the mandate after it passes
- ✗ You face the regulation with no one in the room
- ✗ You hire a lobbyist at market rate, if you can find one
- ✗ You fight your own issue exposed and outspent
Standing With CEA
- ✓ You know the bill before it moves
- ✓ You have a team in the room when it matters
- ✓ You benefit from lobbying already paid for by your membership
- ✓ You face your own issue with a dedicated government relations team behind you
Awareness keeps you informed. Influence keeps you in business.
What Policy Is Deciding Right Now
Policy is not neutral. Right now, it is writing the rules for:
How your business operates.
Mandates, workplace rules, and operating requirements are drafted in legislative chambers you will never walk into unless someone puts you there.
What you are permitted to do.
Your freedom to hire, serve, and operate by your values depends entirely on who writes the rules.
Whether you can live out your faith at work.
Religious liberty in the workplace is not guaranteed. It must be defended, legislated, and protected, every session, in every chamber.
Strategic Support at Every Level of Government
CEA engages where the decisions get made, so your business is represented before the rules are written, not after.
Governors, legislators, and state agencies decide many of the most consequential questions for your business. We are there.
Direct engagement with members of the House and Senate on legislation affecting religious liberty and employer freedom.
The EEOC, HHS, DOL, and every other agency whose rules govern your daily operations. We navigate them so you do not have to.
Five Disciplines. One Coordinated Strategy.
Policy Advocacy
Your Voice Where It Matters
Employers are powerful messengers. But access and timing decide everything.
- Engage the right policymakers at the right moment
- Communicate clearly on the issues that hit your business
- Sustain the effort across every level of government
You are not speaking alone. You are part of a coordinated national force.
Regulatory Strategy
Shaping the Rules
Regulations decide your costs, your operations, and your long-term survival.
- Early insight into regulatory developments and risks
- Direct engagement with the agencies writing the rules
- Guidance to cut compliance burdens before they land
We make sure the people writing and enforcing the rules hear your concerns.
Legislative Engagement
Precision With Lawmakers
Real change takes more than effort. It takes precision.
- Targeted engagement with lawmakers and their staff
- Coordination around the priorities that protect Christian employers
- Direct seats in the policy conversations that matter
With the right strategy, influence stops being theoretical.
Strategic Policy Advisory
Clarity in Complexity
Advocacy plus ongoing counsel.
- Proactive warning on emerging policy risks
- Clear guidance on where to engage and where to hold back
- Alignment between your business strategy and the policy landscape
You engage with focus, spend your energy wisely, and stay true to your mission.
Legislative Intelligence
The Biblical Business Index
Go past tracking legislation. Know where your influence counts most.
- Visibility into how lawmakers align with biblical values
- Strategic insight into where policy is heading
- Data-informed guidance for every engagement decision
We show you exactly where values, policy, and influence meet.
Four Reasons This Is Different
Faith-Aligned Advocacy
Grounded in biblical conviction, not shifting political trends. Advocacy you can trust because it does not move when the polls do.
Employer-Driven Influence
Policy shaped by business leaders, not outside consultants. Your voice sets the direction.
Integrated Strategy
Advocacy, legal protection, and policy intelligence in one ecosystem. No gaps. No handoffs.
A Movement, Not a Firm
You are not a client on a retainer. You are part of a unified voice shaping policy for every Christian employer in America.
Like a Boutique Advisory. Unlike Anything Else.
We bring strategic focus, flexibility, and high-touch engagement. With one defining difference.
We do not just advocate for you. We equip you to engage directly. And when your own fight demands it, we step in as your government relations team.
- ✓ Strategic focus
- ✓ Flexibility and fast response
- ✓ High-touch engagement
"Because we are the only Christian business lobby house in the country, there is no one else built to do this for you."
Dedicated government relations is for members who need it.
Not every member will. But those who do, need it now.
Built for Leaders Who Are Done Watching
- ✓ CEOs and founders of conviction-driven companies
- ✓ Leaders who want influence, not just awareness
- ✓ Employers ready to invest in long-term engagement
- ✓ Businesses of every size with government relations on the line
Policy Is Not Neutral
It is deciding the future of your business and your freedom to operate by conviction, right now, in rooms you are not in.
You can keep watching it happen. Or you can put the only Christian business lobby house in the country to work for you.
Now is the time to engage.
