The Left is escalating its assault on pastors, churches, and anyone who dares to speak biblical truth in public nationwide. We’re seeing believers threatened, fined, and even removed from public spaces simply for exercising their First Amendment rights.

Right now, you have a timely opportunity to strike at the very heart of this injustice in three ways — through your generous donation to the ACLJ.

• First is a critical case before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. The ACLJ has just filed a powerful amicus brief defending pastors’ right to speak freely without fear of IRS retaliation. We are urging the court to affirm what the Founders intended — that the pulpit must remain free, and the IRS cannot silence pastors.

• Then there’s a critical lawsuit filed to defend the First Amendment rights of street preachers. Chicago violated the constitutional rights of three individuals and arrested them for telling people about Jesus. They face unwarranted criminal charges for sharing their faith in public, and we’ve filed a major civil rights lawsuit against the city.

• Thirdly, the Free Speech Fairness Act has been introduced in both the House and Senate. If passed, this bill would protect churches from IRS punishment for speaking out on political issues. It would finally restore the freedom pastors should have always had: the ability to address moral, cultural, and political matters without fear of retribution.

The ACLJ is fighting back to right every wrong. Please stand with us today!
