 Image source: Alliance Defending Freedom"The world we inhabit today, with a pandemic upon us, poses unusual challenges. But there is no world in which the Constitution permits Nevada to favor Caesars Palace over Calvary Chapel." U.S. Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch said this in a dissenting opinion after the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal from a Nevada church arguing that the state government is favoring casinos over churches. In this USA Today op-ed, Hillsdale senior Isabella Redjai discusses the current state of religious freedom and how government officials are favoring liquor stores, marijuana dispensaries, and protests over church gatherings. She argues that, just as protests can't happen over Zoom, churches also require community and gathering together. Redjai observes that keeping churches closed "misdiagnoses the deeper problems within society" and that churches should be allowed to open.

| CBS 4 Denver: Colorado Athlete Madison Kenyon Joins Fight To Save Women's Sports In Idaho | |
|
 Image source: Alliance Defending FreedomWhen Idaho State athlete Madison Kenyon found out she would be competing against a biological male in a women's track and field competition, she knew the result before even lining up. Sure enough, after spending hours working to shave fractions of a second from her lap time, Madison saw her opportunities slip away as the male athlete charged ahead of her. After personally experiencing the unfair competition—and seeing her teammates and friends going through the same trial—Madison decided to join in a lawsuit to protect women's sports in Idaho. Madison is standing up for women's sports because, in her own words: "I feel like when girls talk about this, they get a lot of backlash, and it shouldn’t be like that because this is just promoting fair competition. And we just want to have the opportunities that Title IX is supposed to protect to us."

| National Review: The Federal Government Must Stop the Deadly Abortion Pill | |
|
 Image source: Alliance Defending FreedomMifeprex has caused the death of millions of children and 24 women, and it is known to have over 4,000 adverse effects. So why did a federal judge approve its distribution without in-person consultation? U.S. Senator Ted Cruz and Live Action founder Lila Rose co-author this op-ed to spell out in plain detail the dangers of this abortion-inducing pill. Not only are there zero medical benefits, but the approval of the pill itself is rife with controversy, including the death of one woman before it was approved. The FDA has required in-person consultation before distribution of the drug, but a federal judge recently cited the coronavirus pandemic as a reason to allow women to access the drug without any safeguards. In the end, the authors plainly state an obvious truth: pregnancy is not a disease and the pill cures nothing.
