Faith and Justice

As we celebrate the resurrection of Christ – a season of life – a season of hope – I want to thank all of you for your prayers and support for our work in this country and around the globe. At a time when there is so much turmoil and growing challenges to our faith…

There’s no question about it. President Obama’s warning to the Supreme Court about ObamaCare has accomplished one thing. He has assured that the Supreme Court will be front-and-center in the upcoming presidential campaign. It will be a campaign issue. A political issue. The president’s chastisement of the Justices is extraordinary. Going well beyond expressing his…

A new development in the weeklong war of words launched by President Obama at the Supreme Court. Today, Attorney General Holder complied with a request by a federal appeals court judge to provide a written explanation about the role of the judiciary. It all began on Monday when President Obama chastised the high court saying…

It has taken years. Finally, a major victory for Israel in the international arena. As you know, we’ve been working to support Israel in a variety of ways – including before the International Criminal Court (ICC). Today, significant news: the Office of the Prosecutor of the ICC rejected claims that accused Israel of war crimes…

It’s a troubling development that can only be viewed as dangerous for Israel and the United States.

While a new poll suggests most Americans expect the high court to overturn the pro-abortion, government-run health care law, the fact is this will be a very…

I call it defending the indefensible. What unfolded inside the Supreme Court on the individual mandate was very clear and direct. Justice Anthony Kennedy, considered to be the swing vote in this issue, expressed serious skepticism about the constitutionality of the mandate – the government requiring citizens to purchase health insurance. And, his skepticism comes…

It was high drama inside the Supreme Court today. The individual mandate – the key element of ObamaCare – was at the center of the debate. The issue: Does the individual mandate, which requires Americans to purchase health insurance, violate the Commerce Clause of the Constitution? If the government can force you to buy health…

The first day of oral arguments before the high court concerning the constitutionality of ObamaCare focused on whether the 1867 Anti-Injunction Act (AIA) applies to this case. The AIA bars claimants from asking for a refund on a tax until that tax has been collected and paid. If the high court concludes the AIA applies…
