First Liberty
Dear John,
We just received some fantastic breaking news in our ongoing effort to
protect religious schools from oppression at the hands of increasingly
hostile government officials.
Late yesterday, we won a key victory allowing Calvary Christian School
of Excellence in Cameron County, Texas to reopen for in-person classes
next week.
Cameron County officials had initially issued an order prohibiting the
school from reopening, but quickly relented after swift action from
First Liberty pointing out that such an order was inconsistent with
the Constitution, federal and state law.
This comes on the heels of a separate victory in Texas for Laguna
Madre Christian Academy, which reopened this past week after facing a
similar unlawful order until First Liberty intervened and set county
officials straight.
Now, all eyes turn to California-the turbulent "western
front" of the fight for religious freedom this year, under the
thumb of Governor Gavin Newsom's numerous mandates.
Our client, St. Abraham's Classical Christian Academy in Santa
Cruz County, CA, plans to safely reopen early next week following
proper state health guidelines.
What's yet to be determined is whether these California
officials will step in and interfere with those plans-which
could include shutting them down. We'll be keeping a sharp eye
on the situation, so stay tuned!
In the meantime, you can support our efforts to protect religious
freedom in our nation's schools by donating today. We can only
keep winning victories like these with your support.
Thank you for standing with us in this historic time!
Gratefully,
Kelly
