Dear Friend,



The US Courts are likely the most powerful and influential institutions in our country…yet their decisions often go unnoticed and the public plays little to no role in their function. 



We need to change that. <[link removed]>



In the last few years, the US Supreme Court has reconsidered what many (mostly on the political Left) considered the “law of the land.”



The most important decision in a generation was Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned Roe v. Wade and abolished the constitutional right to abortion. 



In the wake of Dobbs, you and I finally had the chance to fight—and fight we did—to meaningfully limit abortion in North Carolina by prohibiting abortions after 12 weeks of pregnancy. We’ve got a lot more work to do, but this was the first step. 



What you might not know is that in the Dobbs decision, more than 140 Amicus Briefs were filed, which likely played a major role in the decision.



Amicus Briefs provide data and perspective to judges in deciding complex cases, but they also signal to the courts just how contentious certain issues really are. 



In the past decade, the US Supreme Court has directly cited Amicus Briefs in more than twenty percent of cases. 



So why am I telling you this?  It’s simple: the Federal Courts have tremendous power and influence over our lives, but unless we’re a party to a case before the court, we don’t get to influence its outcome—except through Amicus Briefs. 



That’s why we’ve prioritized drafting and filing well-reasoned and thoughtful Amicus Briefs in nearly every case that touches on our core values of life, family, and religious liberty. Through our sister organization the Institute for Faith and Family, we filed an Amicus Brief in the Dobbs case that overturned Roe v. Wade, and we’ve filed Amicus Briefs in dozens of important cases affecting your life.



This is where you can have a real impact on the cases that matter most.



Our sister organization’s legal experts have filed 19 amicus briefs <[link removed]> in federal courts in the past two years alone, and now we’re aiming to bring even more influence to the courts next year. 



Will you make your most generous gift to the NC Values Coalition <[link removed]> or the Institute for Faith and Family <[link removed]> (IFF) (our sister 501(c)(3)) right now? Your generous, tax deductible donation to theInstitute for Faith and Family <[link removed]> will ensure that the voice of North Carolina Christians is heard loud and clear in the courts next year. 



<[link removed]>give now <[link removed]>



Sincerely,





Tami Fitzgerald

Executive Director,
