  • With attacks on your God-given freedoms increasing, your monthly gift is critical.
  • Each one of us, made in the image of God, has inalienable rights given to us by our Creator. These rights include free speech and the freedom of religion. These freedoms protect every American’s ability to live according to their beliefs. Yet, threats to these rights are mounting. We’re seeing federal, state, and local governments trying to enforce gender ideology across our education system and even health services. And parental rights are now being threatened by public school districts and state governments. You can take action to help secure these and more freedoms today. It's only through ...
  • When Hamouda became a Christian, he faced immense opposition. His wife, Nada, was still Muslim at the time, and her family was shocked. When Hamouda converted to Christianity, Nada’s family applied immense pressure for her and their children to abandon Hamouda and return to live with her family. In Sudan, the Sharia court dissolved their marriage, deeming it unlawful for a Muslim woman to be married to a Christian man. But by God’s providence, Nada later became a Christian, too—and reunited with her husband. The prosecutors wanted to charge them with apostasy—the “crime” of converting from ...
  • The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA), mainstream media, and pro-abortion forces have not been honest about the dangers of abortion drugs and how the FDA has put women and girls at risk by removing important safety standards. Are abortion drugs safe and effective, as the FDA claims? Was the removal of safety standards a science-based decision? Are abortion drugs just a basic part of reproductive care? Finding truthful answers to those questions can be difficult, and this issue can be challenging for Americans to discuss. That’s why Alliance Defending Freedom has created a short, accessible ...
  • Could a church or a ministry near you be in danger of losing access to its financial accounts? For this Memphis-based church, it happened so abruptly. Without warning or explanation, Bank of America sent a letter to Indigenous Advance Ministries to notify them that its accounts were being closed. The ministry provides aid to impoverished orphans, widows, youth, and other at-risk populations in Uganda. The bank also targeted Servants of Christ church, which partners with the ministry. Bank of America told them they had 30 days to find a new bank and switch, and just a few weeks before an ...
  • When will it end? After ten years, Colorado cake artist Jack Phillips is still fighting for his right to speak freely. Even though the State of Colorado abandoned its prosecution of the cake artist, a local attorney is now going after Jack in civil court. The Colorado Court of Appeals just affirmed a trial court decision punishing Jack for not designing a custom cake celebrating a gender transition that an activist attorney requested. Alliance Defending Freedom is appealing that decision. What’s happened to Jack is a blatant of example of activists targeting, harassing, and punishing those who ...

  • Parents who want to adopt shouldn’t face discrimination for their deeply held Christian beliefs. They shouldn’t be denied access to available government opportunities because of their faith. Yet that’s precisely what’s happening to Jessica Bates—a mother of five who is seeking to adopt and care for a sibling pair. Oregon is flat-out rejecting Jessica’s application for failing to “meet the adoption home standards.” In other words, she won’t tell boys they can be girls and girls they can be boys, take children to events like Pride parades, or facilitate a child’s access to potentially ...
  • What would happen to faith-based nonprofits like pregnancy resource centers or homeless shelters if the government stopped them from hiring only employees who agreed with and lived out the organization’s values? According to two U.S. Supreme Court justices, “many non-profits would be extinguished from participation in public life.” But a Washington state employment law is being used to threaten the work of religious ministries. In 2021, the Washington Supreme Court ruled that religious organizations could be forced to hire people who disagree with, and refuse to live out, the ministries’ ...
