Dear John,

Right now, a devoted teacher of 32 years is fighting for her faith and her job.

Marisol Arroyo-Castro's only "offense"? Refusing to hide a small crucifix at her desk.

After three decades of dedicated service teaching Connecticut's children, school officials gave Marisol an impossible choice: hide her crucifix from view or face discipline. When she couldn't bring herself to hide this expression of her faith, they suspended her without pay.

Now, she's on administrative leave, facing possible termination.

The most shocking part? Other teachers freely display personal items at their desks from Baby Yoda figures to Patriots pennants. Even a photograph of the Virgin Mary is allowed. But Marisol's small crucifix was deemed unacceptable.

Watch this interview with First Liberty attorney Becky Dummermuth to get the latest updates on this critically important case:

The Supreme Court has already ruled in our landmark Kennedy v. Bremerton case that teachers have the right to personal religious expression even when students are present.

That’s why First Liberty Institute is fighting back. Together, we can put a stop to this blatant religious discrimination.

But we need your help to defend Marisol and other people of faith facing similar hostility.

Will you stand with Marisol today?

Your tax-deductible gift of $50, $100, or even $250 will help us:

• Provide Marisol with top-notch legal representation at no cost to her
• Send a powerful message that religious discrimination will not be tolerated
• Set precedents that protect people of faith across America

Time is running out for Marisol. Please give generously today.

Grateful for you, 

Kelly

P.S. No teacher should have to choose between their faith and their career. Your gift today will help ensure Marisol won't have to make that choice. Stand with her now.
