Kristen Clarke, whose nomination to lead the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice has drawn controvsersy because of her prior actions around race and antisemitism, assured members of Congress on Wednesday that she would protect religious rights and fight against religious discrimination and antisemitism if she is confirmed.
