Our culture is increasingly hostile to those of faith and common sense. Every day, Americans are losing their jobs, their businesses are threatened, and their speech is silenced. But we’re hopeful, not anxious, about the future of freedom. We have an opportunity to engage our culture, and we’re going to double down in 2024 in three key ways: countering censorship, challenging gender ideology, and securing parental rights. It’s going to take the entire alliance—including folks like you—to successfully contend for the truth. Will you step up right now with a gift of $50, $75, $100, $250, or more ...

Federal, state, and local governments are pushing a radical gender ideology that says gender is determined by our feelings rather than by biology. But perhaps most dangerous of all, some officials want to censor any debate regarding gender ideology—and this censorship has also made its way into schools. Liam Morrison, a 12-year-old student at Nichols Middle School in Middleborough, Massachusetts, is all too familiar with this censorship. When Liam wore a T-shirt to school that said, “There are only two genders,” the school responded by promptly pulling him out of class and ordering him to ...

Coach David Bloch has given so much to the snowboarding program at Woodstock Union High School (WUHS) in Vermont. As the founder of the program, he has invested countless hours in student athletes. But none of that mattered when Coach Bloch respectfully shared his beliefs regarding gender with two athletes—and became the latest American punished for acknowledging biological reality. When the WUHS women’s snowboarding team was scheduled to compete against a team that included a male, two student athletes were discussing the issue. Coach Bloch overheard the conversation and simply spoke to the ...

The violation of freedom is no longer an ill-defined threat—it’s happening right in our backyards. Our culture is buying into dangerous lies about the family, life, and what it means to be human—and it’s snowballing quickly. Alliance Defending Freedom’s clients can tell you just how close to home this hits. But it’s through the generosity of people like you that we can stand up for individuals, ministries, and churches whose First Amendment rights are violated by the government. When ministry leaders, pastors, teachers, artists, and parents are told that they aren’t allowed to live and speak ...

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 ...

Parents have the responsibility to direct their children’s general health and well-being. And the Constitution protects the fundamental rights of parents to raise and educate their children consistent with their beliefs and values. But, unfortunately, that hasn’t stopped some government officials from trying to interfere with parental rights and undercut the important role of mothers and fathers in their children’s lives. For example, more and more school districts are ignoring parents’ instructions and even concealing information about their children’s education on critical issues like sex ...

Believers in Christ have a great commission—to “go and make disciples of all nations”—a charge to tell others of God’s wonderful grace and the invitation to follow Him. But around the world, our brothers and sisters in Christ are paying the ultimate price to follow Jesus and proclaim the truth. They’re facing extreme persecution, often including imprisonment and death. With boldness, we can stand for their rights to religious freedom and free speech, so that the good news of the Gospel may continue to be preached openly, and without fear of government punishment. If you stand with us, you help ...
