Help ensure your constitutional rights always have a strong legal defense.

For more than 10 years, Colorado cake artist Jack Phillips has been dragged through courts because activists have targeted, harassed, and tried to punish him for his beliefs. In the third lawsuit targeting Jack and his business, Masterpiece Cakeshop, the Colorado Court of Appeals affirmed a lower court’s ruling that punished Jack for not designing a custom cake celebrating a gender transition, requested by an activist attorney. Jack serves everyone. But he can’t create every message that he’s asked to. The activist attorney said he wanted to “test” Jack and “correct the errors of [Jack’s] ...

He’s been called names, received death threats, been compared to Nazis and slaveholders, and been dragged into court again and again. All because he wants to say what he believes without fear of government punishment. But let’s back up. Jack is a cake artist in Colorado. As the owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop, he gladly serves all people. And like most artists, he always decides whether to create a custom cake based on what message it will express, never who requests it. For this, Colorado officials tried to punish Jack all the way up to the U.S. Supreme Court. They wanted to force Jack to say ...

The cruelty against Jack Phillips continues. Will you pray for him? You know his story: Jack is the cake artist from Colorado who serves all people but could not—and cannot—create a custom cake that expresses a message he does not believe. For Jack and so many other Christian artists, it’s never about the who. It’s always about what message they’re being asked to communicate. He cannot express every message asked of him. And because our nation’s Constitution protects free speech, he doesn’t have to. After ten years, and despite two victories, he’s still being targeted by activists who want to ...

When will it end? After ten years, Colorado cake artist Jack Phillips is still fighting for his right to speak freely. Even though the State of Colorado abandoned its prosecution of the cake artist, a local attorney is now going after Jack in civil court. The Colorado Court of Appeals just affirmed a trial court decision punishing Jack for not designing a custom cake celebrating a gender transition that an activist attorney requested. Alliance Defending Freedom is appealing that decision. What’s happened to Jack is a blatant of example of activists targeting, harassing, and punishing those who ...

They are lying about ADF. Here’s how you can fight back. Alliance Defending Freedom and the right to live and speak freely are under attack. When the U.S. Supreme Court decided 303 Creative v. Elenis in favor of Lorie Smith and free speech, it was a win for all Americans. Yet, within hours, opponents of free speech launched a coordinated attack against ADF and Lorie Smith. Lies and misinformation are being spread by current and former Biden administration officials, Colorado’s Attorney General, activists, and liberal media outlets in an unprovoked and coordinated attack on the integrity of ADF ...

Gender theory is harming children and poisoning our culture. It’s just that simple. From the classrooms to the playing fields to adoption policy, gender theory seeks to distort the clear truth and is undermining one of the most foundational realities of what it means to be human: the fact that we are each created male or female. Alliance Defending Freedom is on the front lines, pushing back against gender theory in the culture and in the courtroom. We’re challenging policies like “gender transition” plans that mislead and deceive parents about the care of their children. And policies that ...

Now there’s no doubt. Detailed information released this week by the U.S. House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government makes plain that the Biden administration has been partnering with major banks and payment processors to censor non-profit ministries and threaten the freedom of everyday Americans. And now, the subcommittee has revealed that the government has targeted Alliance Defending Freedom. We’ve been unlawfully swept up in the federal government’s “domestic terrorist” dragnet. While ADF was advocating on behalf of the freedom of EVERY American to live ...
