Great news! We just won one of our cases. Our client, Dr. Johnson
Varkey, is getting his job back.

St. Philip's College in San Antonio fired him a year ago. Why?
Because he taught basic and widely accepted concepts of biology to his
students. He taught that sex is determined by X and Y chromosomes,
consistent with his study of human biology and religious beliefs.

As part of the settlement, the college guaranteed that Dr. Varkey will
be back to teaching in spring 2024. He will also receive an
undisclosed monetary amount if he doesn't receive a class in
time, and he will teach two classes in fall 2024.

Dr. Varkey is going back to the classroom, where he belongs. And
it's all thanks to your support. YOU are the one who made this
victory possible.

Thank you for all the prayers and encouragement you sent our way
during this case. This means everything to Dr. Varkey, as well as to
everyone on our team.

"I love science and I love to teach," Dr. Varkey said.
"I am excited about returning to the classroom and am grateful
to all those who helped me get my teaching job back."

"We are happy that the Alamo Community College District
voluntarily reinstated Dr. Varkey," said First Liberty attorney
Kayla Toney. "He is excited by this outcome, and we are glad
that ACCD did the right thing. Dr. Varkey looks forward to continuing
to educate students."

As always, thank you for giving so generously. Every donation you make
to First Liberty turns into real impact for everyday American heroes.
It's your donation that provides them with the best legal
defense possible.

Let's celebrate this win together! Dr. Varkey has been
rightfully vindicated. He's once again free to fulfill his
calling and do what he does best. That's the impact of your gift
to First Liberty.
