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. ...

The threats to religious freedom are growing fast. But Alliance Defending Freedom has been defending religious freedom for over document.write(new Date().getFullYear() - 1994); years, and with 15 victories at the Supreme Court just since 2011, we’re working to secure freedom’s future for all Americans—the freedom of religion and free speech not just for ourselves, but for future generations as well. That’s because the right to live out your faith doesn’t end at your doorstep, even as some government officials and activists are trying to force you to keep it at home. As one supporter ...

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 ...

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 ...

Help ensure your constitutional rights always have a strong legal defense. DONATE NOW The Colorado Supreme Court has agreed to hear the latest case against cake artist Jack Phillips and his Masterpiece Cakeshop. Will you help fuel his defense? In the third lawsuit targeting Jack and his business, the Colorado Court of Appeals affirmed a judgment punishing Jack for not designing a custom pink-and-blue cake celebrating a gender transition that an activist attorney requested.

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 ...

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 ...

Alliance Defending Freedom is committed to protecting and defending our God-given rights in courtrooms and legislatures across America. And we care about your opinion. Please tell us:

Imagine feeling a conviction to adopt and care for other children—to love those who lack a loving home. And now imagine that your state is excluding you from adoption because you won’t contradict your beliefs— you won’t encourage a child to identify as the opposite sex or take them to receive cross-sex hormone shots intended to block their natural biological development. This is exactly the situation Jessica Bates faces in Oregon. Oregon officials are preventing Jessica and others like her from adopting a child if they believe sex is unchangeable—whether based on Scripture or biology. It’s a ...
