When Dayspring Christian Learning Center is threatened, your freedom is on the line, too. When the federal government tries to force faith-based ministries and schools to violate their beliefs to receive needed funding, kids in need lose. And this time, it’s dozens of poor and minority students at Dayspring Christian Learning Center in El Cajon, California, who could be losing out on lunches they desperately need. This is a case of government officials placing ideology above the health and well-being of children—which has happened far too often in the past few years. And it’s a blatant ...

It’s costly to tell the truth today. It can cost you your reputation, your livelihood, and even your friends and family. But far greater is the cost of not standing up to these lies—especially in America’s schools. When the government shuts down speech, it teaches the next generation what is and isn’t acceptable to say. When the government hides critical information from parents, it drives a wedge between parents and their children—and leaves kids vulnerable to damaging lies. When the government bows to the idea that speech and ideas can be violence, it teaches our future leaders to choose ...

Seventh-grader Liam Morrison wanted to participate in the national conversation about sex and gender. That’s his right as an American. Unfortunately, his Massachusetts school only allowed for one opinion—theirs. So when Liam wore a shirt to school that said “There are only two genders,” school officials pulled him from class and told him to take it off or be sent home. He bravely stood up to the unlawful demands, and now attorneys with Alliance Defending Freedom are suing to protect his right to speak without fear of government punishment. But he’s far from the only American who is facing ...

When Elizabeth faced an unexpected pregnancy shortly after graduating college, she didn’t know where to turn. Although she was unsure about pursuing abortion, her boyfriend at the time wanted her to go to Planned Parenthood—and soon she found herself being coerced to take abortion drugs. Elizabeth was assured that when she took the drugs, all she would experience would be “light cramping,” and that she would be “back to work on Monday.” But this is a far cry from what Elizabeth went through. Elizabeth was abandoned when she was most in need. No one told her about the pain she would go through ...

Alliance Defending Freedom’s lawsuit to hold the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) accountable for recklessly and unlawfully approving chemical abortion drugs has now reached the U.S. Supreme Court. The Biden administration has appealed lower court decisions that have restored critical safeguards on chemical abortion drugs for women and girls, which were unlawfully removed by the FDA. And we need you to help fuel our ongoing work! Although the FDA and abortion activists claim the drugs are safe and effective, they are not. The danger to women is real. Research has shown that chemical abortion ...

The Constitution is the most important document in American civil life—the “supreme Law of the Land.” It shapes government structures, sets clear and strict limits on the power of our governments, and most importantly, enshrines many of our God-given rights.

The attacks on freedom from government officials, big tech, and radical activists are far-reaching. But you can take courage—and action—today. When the early Christians faced the powerful officials seeking to censor and punish them for living and expressing their faith, they spoke with courage. And the world noticed: “When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus” (Acts 4:13). Though our current challenges are many, Alliance Defending Freedom and our Ministry Friends ...

Help ADF defend them and others standing for free speech! Jacksonville, FL-based Queen of Angels Catholic Bookstore and owner Christie DeTrude simply strive to honor God and wish to promote their beliefs, including through the store’s website and YouTube channel. The bookstore joyfully serves all people, and sells its products to anyone, but Christie and her employees cannot speak a message they disagree with. An outrageous Jacksonville law is compelling businesses to speak inconsistent with their beliefs by promoting government-approved ideologies—or face devastating fines. Like far too many ...

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. Activists in the Biden administration, giant corporations, and state governments across the country are getting bolder in their attempts to restrict your freedoms: People are being targeted and punished for their faith in public schools, universities, and in the workplace. Children are also being misled into experimental “gender transition” procedures, are being indoctrinated ...
