First Liberty



History and Tradition.

Thanks to the Kennedy decision at the Supreme Court, these three words
are changing the ways that courts all over the country view public
expressions of faith.

Up until the Kennedy victory, the anti-religion Lemon test was used to
determine if a display, law or other government action violated the
Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. And as a result, public
religious displays began disappearing all over our nation.

Kennedy ended the Lemon test and fifty years of bad legal precedent.
Now, courts are following the original meaning of the Establishment
Clause by evaluating public expressions of faith as they relate to our
nation's history and tradition.

Watch First Liberty's Jeff Mateer explain why expressions of
faith that fall within the longstanding history and traditions of our
nation are once again welcomed in our town squares.

Thanks to your support of First Liberty's work and the Kennedy
decision at the Supreme Court, local, state and federal governments no
longer have to abide by the Lemon test.

That's why states like Louisiana are stepping up to pass laws
that bring religious displays back to our public schools, government
buildings and state parks.

But you don't need a state law to make big changes in your
community. You can work with your city leaders to put up displays like
nativity scenes, Menorahs, and even Ten Commandments monuments.

You can learn more about what you can do right now to bring public
expressions of faith back to your hometown by visiting our Restoring
Faith in America website.
