The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Denise Burke regarding Gov. Joe Lombardo’s veto Monday of SB 239, a bill that would have legalized physician-assisted suicide and forced medical professionals to participate in ending the lives of their patients: “Every life is sacred and has inherent value.

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.

Today, by God’s grace, we stand as the world’s largest legal organization committed to protecting religious freedom, free speech, the sanctity of ...

The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Denise Burke regarding Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs’s veto Thursday of SB 1600, a bill that would have provided legal protections and ensured appropriate medical care for children who survive abortions: “Every human life is valuable, and every baby deserves to be protected. By rejecting critical legal protections for babies who survive abortions, Gov. Hobbs has made it clear: She would rather cater to the abortion industry than affirm the basic human rights of vulnerable children. Her failure to protect the lives of ...

Could a church or a ministry near you be in danger of losing access to its financial accounts? For this Memphis-based church, it happened so abruptly. Without warning or explanation, Bank of America sent a letter to Indigenous Advance Ministries to notify them that its accounts were being closed. The ministry provides aid to impoverished orphans, widows, youth, and other at-risk populations in Uganda. The bank also targeted Servants of Christ church, which partners with the ministry.

Kristi Noem from the existing nationwide coalition seeking to save girls’ and women’s sports—of which Alliance Defending Freedom, Heritage Action, Save Women’s Sports, Concerned Women for America, and numerous other groups are a part—asking her to join them in support of legislation to fully protect female athletes. The letter follows Noem’s decision to gut the recently passed Fairness in Women’s Sports bill (H.B. 1217) by ...
