First Liberty
We just took an important step forward in our Alaska Airlines case
involving Lacey Smith and Marli Brown, the two flight attendants who
were fired for their religious beliefs.
The airline terminated our clients for posting their concerns about
the "Equality Act" and its impact on women and people of
faith on an internal company website. We filed suit against Alaska
Airlines in 2022.
Today, we filed an appeal asking the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
Ninth Circuit to overturn a lower court decision against our clients.
The brief was filed along with volunteer attorneys at Holtzman Vogel
Baran Torchinsky & Josefiak.
In May, a federal district court handed down an alarming ruling that
deprived Lacey and Marli of their chance to present their case before
a jury. Instead, the court sided with Alaska Airlines and the flight
attendants' union. If that lower court opinion stands, it would
empower employers to punish and discriminate against employees simply
for expressing their religious beliefs.
First Liberty Senior Counsel Stephanie Taub is joined by our client
Lacey Smith. They explain why this case could impact your rights in
the workplace. Watch below:

This legal battle isn't over. We're going to continue to
fight for Lacey and Marli until Alaska Airlines and the Association of
Flight Attendants are held accountable for their discrimination.
Going up against a corporate giant like Alaska Airlines in federal
appeals court is no easy task. These companies have huge war chests
and millions at their disposal to drag on these fights with their
former employees.
The only way First Liberty can take on woke corporations like Alaska
Airlines is with your continued support.
By helping us win for Lacey and Marli, you could have an enormous
impact for religious liberty. Winning for them would benefit all
Americans facing religious discrimination in the workplace.
Lacey and Marli can't do this alone. They need your help. Please
give today and help us win their case.
