Dear Friend,
Imagine being a parent—doing your best to raise your child with love, stability, and care—only to learn the school system deliberately kept you in the dark.
That’s what happened to Aurora Regino, a mom in California whose 11-year-old daughter was secretly socially “transitioned” by her school.
Aurora is fighting back—and she needs your help.Your urgent gift today will help the Center for American Liberty defend Aurora and protect the rights of parents across the country.
When her daughter began experiencing gender confusion, officials at Chico Unified School District didn’t call Aurora. They didn’t ask for her input. Instead, they created a plan to treat her daughter as a boy—using a different name and pronouns—and kept it all secret.
Aurora had no idea.
Her daughter wanted to talk to her about it, but school officials discouraged her from talking to Aurora about it.
Can you imagine the heartbreak of discovering your child had been coached to keep something so serious from you?
When Aurora raised concerns, the school district shut her out. They stood by their policy of secrecy.
That’s why we’re representing her in Regino v. Staley—a federal lawsuit challenging the school’s radical policy that requires staff to withhold gender identity changes from parents.
This is about more than one family in one school.
It’s about whether parents have the constitutional right to be involved in their child’s life.
It’s about standing up to systems that tell moms and dads: “We know better than you.”
That’s why we’re asking you to take a stand today.
Rush your tax-deductible gift to support Aurora and defend parental rights.
At the Center for American Liberty, we believe no parent should ever be sidelined by the government. That’s why we fight for those who can’t fight alone—and we do it without charging a dime to the families we represent.
In just the past few years, we've helped secure major victories for constitutional rights:
- In Grant v. Trial Court of Massachusetts, we won a major First Amendment lawsuit at the Second Circuit Court of Appeals defending Jason Grant’s right to hold a sign, with a Bible verse, on a public sidewalk outside a courthouse.
- In Jaman v. City of Port Townsend, we successfully defended the Free Speech rights of an 82-year-old grandmother who was banned by the YMCA for speaking out against men using the lady’s locker room.
- In J.A. v. Luna, we successfully defended the rights of a San Diego middle school student falsely accused of wearing “black face” after he put athletic grease under his eyes at a high school football game.
- And during the height of COVID, we won three cases at the United States Supreme Court challenging California’s unlawful church shutdowns—these wins reopened houses of worship across the country.
We don’t back down. But we can’t do it alone.
Our work is powered by patriots like you—people who believe in parental rights, freedom of speech, and the constitutional principles this nation was built on.
When you give, you’re building a firewall between families and a government that’s trying to replace them.
Aurora is standing up for her daughter—and for every parent who’s been pushed aside.
Will you stand with her with a donation today?
Thank you for defending our rights—and our families.
Sincerely,
Mark Trammell
