When Assistant Principal Emily Mais merely questioned the CRT-inspired curriculum that her school was forcing on students, she was ostracized, harassed, shamed, and even called racist. She saw that the “anti-racist” teaching training was actually directing teachers to be racist in seeing their students as members of groups, based on skin color, and treating them differently based on their race. The work environment got so bad that Emily was eventually forced to resign. With her Alliance Defending Freedom attorneys, Emily has sued the school district, which violated her constitutionally ...

Alliance Defending Freedom attorneys are defending the National Institute of Family and Life Advocates (NIFLA) and two pregnancy centers challenging Vermont state officials for unconstitutionally restricting the centers’ speech and provision of services. But pregnancy resource centers across the state of Vermont—those like Branches—find themselves stifled after the state passed a law impeding the ability of pro-life pregnancy centers to continue providing help and support to Vermont women and families. The law censors the centers’ ability to advertise their services. It also impedes their ...

Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, the abortion lobby has been hard at work to deceive Americans about abortion. They want the nation to embrace the destructive lies that women never regret choosing abortion over life, and that women could be prosecuted for seeking treatment for ectopic pregnancies and other life-threatening conditions. Pro-abortion activists want you to believe that abortion is good for women. But this could not be further from the truth. We know some pregnant women face very difficult circumstances—and they deserve better options than abortion. Abortion comes with a high risk ...

The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Christiana Kiefer regarding the U.S. Department of Education’s proposed rule published Tuesday that illegitimately rewrites Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 and violates constitutionally and legally protected freedoms: “While chasing a radical political agenda, President Biden and his education secretary have dismantled Title IX and, with it, equal opportunities for women. In addition to denying women a fair and level playing field in sports, the administration’s new rule could impose widespread ...

The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Christiana Kiefer regarding South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster’s signing Monday of the Save Women’s Sports Act, a bill that protects opportunities for women and girls in athletics by ensuring they are not forced to compete against males playing on women’s sports teams: “Girls deserve to compete on a level playing field. We welcome South Carolina to the growing number of states that have acted to preserve fair competition for all females, whether in grade school or college. When the law ignores biological ...

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 ...

The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Christiana Kiefer regarding the Louisiana Legislature’s approval Monday of the Fairness in Women’s Sports Act (SB 44), a bill that protects opportunities for women and girls in athletics by ensuring they are not forced to compete against men playing on women’s sports teams: “Girls deserve to compete on a level playing field. We commend the Louisiana Legislature for recognizing this and passing the Fairness in Women’s Sports Act for a second time. Since Gov. Jon Bel Edwards’s veto of the bill last year, we’ve ...

The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Jake Warner regarding the Arizona Supreme Court’s decision Monday to reject an attempt by Planned Parenthood to halt judgment affirming the state’s pro-life law, but to allow a delay for Attorney General Kris Mayes to consider an appeal. In a response filed Tuesday, ADF attorneys asked the court to finalize its judgment affirming the state’s pro-life law, but the court temporarily paused that process, allowing the attorney general up to 90 days to consider an appeal: “Life is a human right, and Arizona’s pro ...
