Tens of thousands of children throughout the country need loving and stable families. But the United States is currently facing a shortage of loving foster care and adoptive homes, and the nation is facing a crisis. In Oregon, several hundred children are up for adoption and desperately need someone to care for them, and yet the state is putting their needs second to politics. For Oregon, a loving and stable home isn’t enough. They’re requiring that prospective adoptive parents agree with the state’s views on radical gender ideology. They’re turning down anyone who won’t lie to a child about ...

The job of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is to protect Americans’ health and safety. But the FDA has betrayed this trust and has done the exact opposite by putting women and girls in harm’s way. On March 26, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral argument in Alliance Defending Freedom’s case challenging the FDA’s reckless and unlawful removal of commonsense safeguards on abortion drugs. The pro-women doctors we represent have witnessed firsthand the harm to women and girls caused by the FDA’s reckless actions. Under the FDA’s current rules, prescribers do not check women for life ...

There are growing threats to those who serve Jesus. Opponents of freedom are trying to silence those who speak and live consistent with the Christian faith—here in America and around the world. Jessica Bates, a mother of five in Oregon, was denied the opportunity to adopt due to her Christian convictions. The state of Washington is trying to force a Christian organization to hire people who don’t share the ministry’s faith. And just recently, news broke that the federal government has labeled Christian and conservative organizations, including Alliance Defending Freedom, to be "domestic ...

Your generosity has been critical in helping secure wins in the stand for freedom. You’ve helped support many clients in need and helped secure victories in courts across the country. This means that you helped freedom prevail for every American. In Illinois, for example, your generosity helped support a legal victory for free speech on behalf of Maggie DeJong. While she was a graduate student, she shared her biblical and conservative views in class and online—and in response, several students complained and the school tried to silence her, even going so far as to tell her she wasn’t allowed ...

Long before the Biden administration began to try to unlawfully rewrite Title IX, we knew that we would have to step up in a big way to counter this attack on truth and women’s rights. That’s why we’ve been providing our legal expertise to state legislatures to craft laws that protect the privacy and safety of women and girls and uphold basic principles of fairness in athletics. Thanks be to God, we’ve seen success. But much work remains. And we need the help of friends like you as much as ever. Government officials—including those in the Biden administration—are doubling down on promoting ...

America is one of the last countries in the world strongly committed to protecting the freedoms to speak freely and to live out our faith. But our most cherished rights must be constantly defended, and they’re being challenged now as much as ever before. Alliance Defending Freedom receives thousands of requests for legal assistance every year—and that number represents just a fraction of people whose rights are threatened by government officials and radical activists. As the Biden administration and other government officials around the country implement policies at odds with freedom, the ...

As a mother of five, Jessica knows what it’s like to provide a loving home. And as a widow, she knows what it’s like to lose a part of your family. So after hearing about another person’s adoption story, she felt inspired to make a happy home for children in need in the state of Oregon. But in Oregon, parents like Jessica must agree to use a child’s preferred pronouns, take children to LGBT-affirming events like Pride parades, and facilitate a child’s access to dangerous pharmaceutical interventions like puberty blockers and hormone shots that can sterilize a young child. The Oregon Department ...

President Biden has promised to sign the “Equality Act” into law during his first 100 days if given the chance. Now, with its recent passage in the House, the chances of the “Equality Act” being signed into law are higher than ever before. The “Equality Act” would add “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” as protected classes to many existing federal nondiscrimination laws. And though “nondiscrimination” sounds good in theory, that is not what this bill is truly about. The “Equality Act” is a deliberate and dangerous attempt to force people of faith to abandon their sincerely held beliefs ...
