Today is Flag Day, not just at the Alito house but everywhere. Flying the American flag upside down has long been recognized as a symbol of distress, such as when your boat is taking on water. These days the metaphor for the country couldn’t be more apt. That's why we need your help.

We have a Christian nationalist in a nice suit serving as Speaker of the House. Just two days ago a New Jersey Congressman introduced H.R.8720 - "To amend the International Religious Freedom Act of 1998 to prohibit preferential Federal grant treatment for atheist groups" (Long story. Phony issue.) so the bills keep coming. We have Supreme Court justices who don’t bother hiding their belief that “religious liberty is under attack” and that it’s their job to fix it with religious discrimination. It’s a coin flip whether Joe Biden or Donald Trump will run the government for the next four years. 

We’re on the ground in DC advocating for and against legislation that affects you and many Americans. We’re providing resources to help get out the secular vote in the fall. H.R.8720 will definitely go on our Secular Voter Scorecard. You’ll be hearing a lot from us about fighting Project 2025, the Republicans’ 920-page blueprint for taking over the government agency by agency. It includes the words “religion” or "religious” 115 times. The Republicans want to be as prepared to take over in January as they were unprepared in January, 2017, and they’re coming for anything in the way of a more Christian government.
 
Our work is more important now than ever. If everyone reading this sends us a dollar for every felony charge that every American president in history has been convicted of, we wouldn’t have to bother you again for a long time. (That’s $34 in case you’re not a history major.) If you’re really losing sleep over what’s happening in the country, you could double that. ($68 if you’re not a math major). But we will gratefully accept any amount you can donate to help us defend the rights of nonreligious Americans and fight for the separation of church and state. Please donate today.
