Faith and Justice

It’s really no longer a question of “will” ObamaCare get to the U.S. Supreme Court. Friday’s decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit makes it all but a certainty. In a discussion about the most recent appeals court decision by the 11th Circuit declaring the individual mandate unconstitutional, I told Pat Robertson…

I want to share with you a victory we have achieved in our efforts to protect the rights of those who wanted to show a powerful documentary marking the anniversary of 9/11 in several parks in New York City. You may recall the post a couple of weeks in which I announced that the ACLJ…

It is a critical step forward to undoing ObamaCare. The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals has declared the individual mandate, the provision forcing Americans to purchase health insurance, unconstitutional.  In split decision, posted here, the court found that “the individual mandate contained in the Act exceeds Congress’s enumerated commerce power.” “What Congress cannot do under the…

Christians are in the crosshairs around the globe – facing more danger than ever before because of their faith. That has been apparent to us for years as the ACLJ, along with our international affiliate organizations, work to protect the rights of Christians around the globe. Now, comes a new study from the Pew Forum…

The battle to derail the government-run, pro-abortion ObamaCare is about to intensify in the courts and in Congress. As you know, there are numerous legal challenges to this health care law. We’re involved in many of them – representing members of Congress in filing amicus briefs supporting efforts by Florida and Virginia to challenge the law. In…

It is a bold move in the fight to protect life. I’m talking about Indiana’s new state law that prohibits federal funds it receives from going to abortion providers like Planned Parenthood. I first wrote about this issue in June and noted that this law was immediately challenged in federal court by Planned Parenthood and the…

You’ve already heard about the absurd claims being made by an atheist group that’s trying to get a cross removed from a new museum at Ground Zero in NYC. I’ve explained the unbelievable arguments put forth in the lawsuit by American Atheists – a lawsuit that charges that their plaintiffs are experiencing “depression, headaches, anxiety, and…

We’re moving forward with our aggressive strategy against Planned Parenthood (PP) in what can only be described as a massive fraud case involving the PP affiliates of California. You may recall that we achieved a major victory in 2010 when a federal appeals court reinstated a lawsuit against Planned Parenthood after a lower court dismissed…

I want to bring you an update on our efforts to get the U.S. Supreme Court to hear a case involving the display of the Ten Commandments, a case I told you about in June. We filed our Petition for Writ of Certiorari at the high court a couple of months ago. Now, we have filed…

It now appears we have less than two weeks to file our amicus brief backing the cross at the new Ground Zero museum – a cross being challenged in court by the American Atheists. As I told you last week, when the atheist group filed suit, we will be representing former NYC firefighter and first…
