Sunday Law at the Gates: Jonathan Berry’s Nomination Heads to a Final Vote in the Full Senate

June 26, 2025 by Andy Roman



Jonathan Berry, known as “Mr. Sunday Law” for his public advocacy of bringing back Blue laws, has officially advanced one step closer to becoming the next Solicitor of the U.S. Department of Labor. On June 26, 2025, the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee voted to move his nomination forward, clearing the way for a full hearing and vote in the Senate chamber. If confirmed, Berry would serve as the top legal officer in the Department of Labor, giving him significant influence over labor policy, workplace regulations, and religious accommodations. His nomination is raising eyebrows among those concerned about the growing entanglement of church and state, particularly in the context of labor reform and Sunday rest advocacy.

The US Senate Newsroom published the following on June 26, 2025:

• “Today, the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee voted to advance eight of President Trump’s nominees at the Department of Education, the Department of Labor, and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.” [1]

• “All nominations will now move to the Senate floor for a final vote at a later date. The approved nominations include:” [1]

• “Penny Schwinn to serve as Deputy Secretary of Education, Department of Education” [1]

• “Kimberly Richey to serve as Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, Department of Education” [1]

• “Daniel Aronowitz to serve as Assistant Secretary of Labor for the Employee Benefits Security Administration, Department of Labor” [1]

• “David Keeling to serve as Assistant Secretary of Labor for the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Department of Labor” [1]

• “Jonathan Berry to serve as Solicitor, Department of Labor” [1]

• “Andrew Rogers to serve as Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, Department of Labor” [1]

• “Andrea Lucas to serve as a Member, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission” [1]

• “Jeremiah Workman to serve as Assistant Secretary of Labor for Veterans’ Employment and Training, Department of Labor” [1]

We are witnessing a dangerous and deliberate shift as politicians and political appointees are no longer concealing their intent to use government as a tool to resurrect and restore Christianity in America. When civil power is hijacked to enforce religious doctrines, the line between church and state is not just crossed—it’s obliterated. This is not merely a misguided political movement; it is the fulfillment of Revelation’s warning about a false revival that will use state authority to enforce worship, leading to the formation of the image of the beast (Revelation 13:13–14).

As lawmakers desperately attempt to “save” society, we will see an increasing push for religious legislation: Ten Commandments displayed on government property, Bible reading and prayer mandated in public schools, and the revival of Sunday as the state-endorsed day of worship. While they may appear as acts of patriotism and morality, they actually mark the start of a prophetic crisis and religious tyranny.

“When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near” (Testimonies, Vol. 5, p. 451).
