The First Amendment’s guarantee of religious freedom protects the right of Yakima Union Gospel Mission and other faith-based ministries to hire those who share and live out their beliefs. Yet instead of praising the Mission for the strides it has made in caring for the homeless, government officials are hitting the ministry with threats of unconstitutional penalties. Alliance Defending Freedom is standing beside the Mission in defense of religious liberty. We defend our clients all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, if necessary. Cases like that can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars ...

When will it stop? At Alliance Defending Freedom, we’re seeing governments try to sideline Christian children’s homes, adoption centers, and homeless ministries from their mission because they are committed to following their faith. To put it bluntly, these ministries are being attacked because they seek to live out the Gospel and refuse to compromise their faith and God-given mission. In some cases, standing for the Gospel results in a ministry facing a barrage of unlawful and discriminatory attacks in the form of threatened investigations and penalties. In other cases, it could mean a ...

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 ...

Female athletes spend years—even decades—of their lives training and honing their skills. They know that the difference between victory and defeat can be a single point or a tenth of a second. Fairness between competitors is critical. But the Biden administration and radical activists throughout the country are undermining the truth that there are biological differences between females and males by attempting to force women and girls to compete against males, who have significant—and documented—physical advantages. As this continues, women’s sports are being destroyed as opportunities and ...
