Thanksgiving is just a few days away.

And this year one of the things we are most thankful for is the
opportunity to argue a critical case at the Supreme Court. In less
than a week, we'll be traveling to Washington D.C. to argue on
behalf of Gabe Olivier.

And the justices' decision will impact all Americans, religious
or not.

Help Secure the Future of Faith and Freedom

Gabe was arrested, handcuffed, and loaded into the police cruiser for
violating a Brandon, Mississippi city ordinance that requires
demonstrations near the city's amphitheater to take place in a
designated "protest area."

Only Gabe wasn't protesting.

Gabe was attempting to share his faith with other visitors in the
public park where the amphitheater was located.

Gabe at the Supreme Court.

The Brandon ordinance is a clear violation of the First Amendment.

This law doesn't just regulate when and where people can speak.
It also prevents people like Gabe from freely sharing their faith in
the city park.

Yet when Gabe attempted to challenge its constitutionality and future
enforcement, he was denied his day in court.

Instead, the judge ruled that because Gabe had pled no contest and
paid the fine, he had no right to challenge the city ordinance.

Every American Has the Right to Have Their Day in Court
Stand with Gabe and Your First Liberty

On December 3rd, First Liberty will be arguing for Gabe's right
to challenge the Brandon ordinance in court at the Supreme Court.

This is a historic opportunity to impact two of our most important
freedoms as Americans - religious freedom and each
American's right to have their case heard in a court of law.

Throughout November, our expert legal team has been preparing to face
the justices and present the issues at hand in this case.

But to deliver our best argument and finish strong, we need you to
stand with us.

And this year's Giving Tuesday is your opportunity to do just
that.

Thanks to our $100,000 Challenge Grant, your gift before midnight on
Tuesday, December 2nd will have a multiplied impact in the fight to
secure the future of faith and freedom.

Iit's time to stand firmly for faith.
It's time to go all in.

Will you take advantage of the opportunity that is before us?

Your gift today will fund our legal team fighting for Gabe's rights at
the highest court in the land-and protect the freedom of every
American to have their day in court.

Thankfully, there are brave Americans like Gabe who are willing to
fight back when the chips are down. And at First Liberty, we are
thankful that you make it possible for us to fight for them.

Yes, I will make a gift today >>
