Bryan and Rebecca Gantt were faithful foster parents to children in need for seven years—until the state of Vermont revoked their license because of their Christian beliefs. Pastor Bryan and Rebecca opened their hearts and home to love the most vulnerable among us: children without stable families who were born with drug dependencies and special needs. They adopted three children from the foster-care system and inspired other families to foster, too. Then, the state of Vermont insisted the Gantts comply with new foster-parent licensing policies that would require them to profess the state’s ...

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 ...

15-year-old West Virginia athlete Adaleia Cross has loved sports all her life. But now, her love has turned to pain. Adaleia has been forced to compete against—and share a locker room with—a male teammate who identifies as a girl. In the locker room and out on the track, the male athlete also regularly made vile, sexual, threatening, and demeaning remarks to Adaleia and other girls. These remarks are too explicit to quote for you here. No girl should be made to endure what Adaleia has, yet the federal government’s new Title IX rule changes will allow men into women’s locker rooms and restrooms ...

Educators, parents, and students are facing increasing threats to their freedoms. Why? Because government officials are silencing speech that they disagree with and punishing Americans for engaging in honest discussion and debate. Some policies seek to compel educators and students to express messages that aren’t true, or ones that violate their beliefs. These unlawful directives force educators to deceive and mislead parents and students about plain truths, and to speak messages with which they disagree—or face punishment. But don’t educators and students alike have the right to live and ...

Who is Liam? As a middle-school student in Middleborough, Massachusetts, Liam was punished by the school for wearing a t-shirt that says, “There are only two genders.” Why what happened to Liam matters Students don’t forfeit their free speech when they walk into school. It’s not just about a shirt—it’s about government officials telling a middle-schooler that he can’t say something that’s important to him just because they disapprove of what he said. That’s not freedom. If the government can censor Liam, it can censor any student about any subject. The school’s actions are illegal All students ...

A child’s relationships with parents and family are critical. Parents know the needs of their children best. They have the God-given responsibility to raise their children and walk through every life stage with them. Sadly, many schools are creating policies that undermine that relationship. Did you know some schools have ‘gender support plans’ to socially transition children without parental consent? Are your children being taught that they are either ‘oppressors’ or ‘oppressed’? Are they being compelled to affirm offensive concepts that violate their beliefs? Download our FREE toolkit, which ...
