Hello Friend,
On Tuesday earlier this week, the NC Values Coalition joined with pro-religious liberty supporters from across the country to advocate for our freedoms on the steps of the Supreme Court. What brought us together were the oral arguments for the Harris Funeral Homes case that was being argued before our nation's highest court.
This court case is likely to be monumental in determining whether "sex" is redefined to mean "gender identity" in our federal laws. If the judges are allowed to uphold rulings against Harris Funeral Homes, the resulting redefinition of "sex" to mean "gender identity" will create chaos and be unfair to women and girls.

"We are here today to ask the U.S. Supreme Court to restore sanity and the rule of law. Americans should be able to rely on what the law says. Yet, in these three cases, the lower courts have effectively redefined the word “sex” in federal law to include “gender identity,” creating unfair situations for women and girls, and punishing businesses like Harris Funeral Homes for relying on what the law says. Redefining “sex” to mean “gender identity” creates chaos and is unfair to women and girls.
...
Laws cannot be enforced or rightly interpreted if word definitions can be shifted at will to mean whatever someone wants them to mean.
Blurring the binary concept of male and female detracts from the fundamental purpose of both Title VII and Price Waterhouse—to ensure that male and female employees have equal employment opportunities.
Male and female are both human beings, but they are not interchangeable in every respect. When the line is blurred, there is no assurance that women will have equal opportunities vis-Ă -vis men.
...
So much is riding on the Court’s decision in these cases. This decision will impact public schools, employers, business owners, employees, and churches. We implore the Justices not to re-define what it means to be a woman and a man, but rather to follow the law, common sense, and the order of Creation." (Tami Fitzgerald, October 8th, 2019, Washington D.C.)
