  • We live in strange times, when basic truths are denied, and God-given freedoms are undermined by those meant to protect us. With the many challenges we face, ADF is focusing on three areas where we expect to see your God-given rights threatened: rising government censorship, increasing dangers posed by gender ideology, and attacks on parental rights. ADF is going on the offense to see that your freedoms are protected—that the stand for freedom is being strengthened in 2024. So we need your help. Because the threats are present, the time is urgent to continue to build the strongest team ...
  • School is back in session and parents need to know what’s happening in their child’s school. Are they being exposed to inappropriate materials on sexuality and gender? Do parents have the option to opt their kids out of such curriculum? Does the school have a secret policy to “transition” confused students without the knowledge or consent of their parents? Activists promoting harmful gender ideology are putting the health and innocence of children at risk. But many parents aren’t sure what do to protect their children. That’s why Alliance Defending Freedom has created a short, free guide to ...
  • There's a struggle for truth playing out across our nation. Many of those in power are trying to intimidate and silence those who believe in our God-given freedoms. But through the generosity of our Ministry Friends like you, we're standing for the right to speak freely with courageous clients like Lorie Smith, who just won her landmark victory for free speech at the U.S. Supreme Court. Even after her win in 303 Creative v. Elenis—ADF's 15th Supreme Court victory in 12 years—she was smeared and lied about in the media and by government officials. But Lorie's win was a win for all to speak ...
  • Free speech is under attack in America. Students from elementary school to graduate school are silenced for expressing their beliefs. Christian counselors are told what they can and can’t discuss with their clients. Governments are using their power to censor views they disagree with. Those are not the values our country was founded upon. Free speech is only “free” if we can say what we believe—without fear of government punishment. Sign the national “I Support Free Speech” pledge today! We need your voice to help send a message that restoring a culture that encourages and fosters free speech ...
  • Americans’ right to live and speak the truth is facing intensifying threats. There are children today who are being targeted and punished for their faith in public schools across America. Children are also being pressured into experimental “gender transition” procedures, are being indoctrinated into radical gender and race-based ideologies, and are being taught to reject the values they are raised with at home. Artists are being threatened with fines, damages, threats to their livelihood, and even jail time for declining to promote messages that violate their deepest beliefs. These are only a ...
  • The Constitution is the most important document in American civil life—the “supreme Law of the Land.” It shapes government structures, sets clear and strict limits on the power of our governments, and most importantly, enshrines many of our God-given rights.
  • The Biden administration is trying to unlawfully rewrite the federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA) and override Idaho’s pro-life law. This would FORCE Idaho emergency room doctors to violate the state’s pro-life law and take innocent unborn life. The Biden administration has sued Idaho to block the state’s law that protects the lives of women and their unborn children from abortion, unless necessary to save the life of the mother. The State of Idaho is standing for life and we’d like to ask you to stand up for life as well. Will you step up right now with a gift and ...
  • Help ADF defend them and others standing for free speech! Jacksonville, FL-based Queen of Angels Catholic Bookstore and owner Christie DeTrude simply strive to honor God and wish to promote their beliefs, including through the store’s website and YouTube channel. The bookstore joyfully serves all people, and sells its products to anyone, but Christie and her employees cannot speak a message they disagree with. An outrageous Jacksonville law is compelling businesses to speak inconsistent with their beliefs by promoting government-approved ideologies—or face devastating fines. Like far too many ...
  • The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Legal Counsel Christiana Holcomb regarding West Virginia HB 3293, a bill Gov. Jim Justice signed into law Wednesday 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. West Virginia joins Idaho, Mississippi, and Arkansas in protecting K-12 and collegiate sports for women and girls: “When the law ignores biological differences, women and girls bear the brunt of the harm. We have seen increasing examples across the country of males ...
  • When you join with other friends of freedom to participate in the National Freedom Candle initiative, you can become part of our united effort to shine the light of freedom in the midst of hostility both near and far. Activists in the Biden administration, giant corporations, and state governments across the country are getting bolder in their attempts to restrict your freedoms: People are being targeted and punished for their faith in public schools, universities, and in the workplace. Children are also being misled into experimental “gender transition” procedures, are being indoctrinated ...
