Future Ban on Circumcision?

Anonymous User writes "Story here. This is about a proposal for a bill that would make laws banning "female genital mutilation" gender neutral is circulating through congress and fifteen state legislatures. The proposal, and the group advocating it, claims infantile circumcision is mutilation and sexual assault done without a child's consent. As a Jewish man and a man opposed to circumcision I have much interest in this topic. I'm curious as to whether there would have to be first amendment exceptions provided for Jews (and perhaps Muslims) for religious freedom purposes."
