Ronald Reagan once said, Freedom … is never more than one generation away from extinction. We are seeing that truth play out before our very eyes. Today, activists and government officials are increasingly misusing the levers of law and policy — at the local, state, federal, and even international levels — to impose a new orthodoxy. This new orthodoxy threatens to silence, punish, and even ruin those who seek to speak and live consistent with the fact that … … life begins at conception. … God designed marriage to be between one man and one woman. … God made men and women equal, but different. ...

Online media such as Facebook and Twitter have become the primary way many, if not most, Americans access the news. But government officials have been pressuring Big Tech to do their dirty work for them—trying to sidestep First Amendment safeguards to censor viewpoints the government doesn’t like. Freedom needs to be safeguarded—even on social media. That’s why Alliance Defending Freedom is standing for the protection and preservation of free speech in cases where government actors, including the Biden administration, have been caught pressuring technology companies to do their bidding. “Using ...

When you join with other friends of freedom to participate in the National Freedom Candle initiative, you can become part of our united effort to shine the light of freedom in the midst of hostility both near and far.

Children are also being misled into experimental “gender transition” procedures, are being indoctrinated ...

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 ...

Lorie Smith rejoices after seven-year battle for free speech On June 30, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in favor of free speech and graphic artist Lorie Smith in 303 Creative v. Elenis. Praise God! This is a landmark victory upholding the First Amendment’s promise of free speech to all Americans. Colorado can no longer misuse the law to coerce or silence speech. The Supreme Court made clear that the First Amendment prevents the government from forcing Americans to say things they don’t believe. As the Court wrote: “But, as this Court has long held, the opportunity to think for ourselves and ...

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 ...

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 ...
