Our Message to the Supreme Court

 

Dear Friend,

On Monday, Family Policy Alliance and 30 of our state allied
organizations filed an amicus (friend of the court) brief with the
U.S. Supreme Court on a critical religious freedom case.

Just before the holidays, you may have heard that the U.S. Supreme
Court agreed to hold an emergency hearing on the consolidated
case against the Biden Administration's vaccine mandate,
which is being imposed on employers with more than 100 employees via
the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

Working quickly, our alliance's legal team - led in this
case by our allied organization in Texas - put together a
powerful brief for the nine justices, who will hear the case on
Friday. Here is our message to them:

* The brief articulates the centrality and importance of religious
freedom in the United States - and highlights the many
challenges this mandate would impose on employers and
employees alike.

* The brief points out that this mandate puts employers in the
difficult position of determining which employees' beliefs
are authentic and which are not - which is especially
challenging in a secular workplace, but also presents challenges
for faith-based ministries. The mandate would essentially turn
employers into enforcers of a dictatorial, overreaching federal
requirement.

* The brief also recounts the history of overreach of the
"administrative state" - in this case, OSHA
- especially when it comes to disregard for religious
liberty. The brief argues that this issue ought to be debated
and worked out in Congress or the state legislatures, where
religious convictions have historically been given much more
respect. 

Family Policy Alliance remains deeply committed to advocating for
your God-given religious liberty and for settling these issues
through the legislative process - just as our Founding Fathers
intended. And we are thankful for you and your support that
makes possible our advocacy before the highest court in the land.

Standing for the family of believers,

Joseph Kohm, III, Esq.
Director, Public Policy
