``SEC. 1994A. CHARITABLE CHOICE.

    ``(a) Short Title.--This section may be cited as the `Charitable 
Choice Act of 2001'.
    ``(b) Purposes.--The purposes of this section are--
            ``(1) to provide assistance to individuals and families in

            ``(3) to allow religious organizations to assist in the 
        administration and distribution of such assistance without 
        impairing the religious character of such organizations; and
            ``(4) to protect the religious freedom of individuals and 
        families in need who are eligible for government assistance, 
        including expanding the possibility of choosing to receive

                Government, or by a State or local government with 
                Federal funds, the government shall consider, on the 
                same basis as other nongovernmental organizations, 
                religious organizations to provide the assistance under 
                the program, if the program is implemented in a manner 
                that is consistent with the Establishment Clause and 
                the Free Exercise Clause of the first amendment to the

                provides assistance under, or applies to provide

        government funds or other assistance that is received by a 
        religious organization for the provision of services under this

        religious organization of Federal, State, or local government 
        funds or other assistance under this section is not and should 
        not be perceived as an endorsement by the government of
