Where is the Ambassador for Religious Liberty ?

According to PBS’s Religion & Ethic Newsweekly :

A 1998 law mandates that the US government have an Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom to advance religious liberty around the world as part of American foreign policy. But the Obama administration still has not appointed anyone to this post, even though in his landmark speech to the Muslim world from Cairo in June 2009 President Obama said religious freedom is an American priority.

Yes, but in fairness, the president didn’t say it was his priority.
