Brumley that allowed Louisiana to enforce its law requiring public schools to display the Ten Commandments in every classroom from Kindergarten to college. Interfaith Alliance was one of 20 religious organizations that co-signed a friend-of-the-court brief in the case.

This hateful rhetoric seeks to spread polarization and division and wrongly pit diverse American communities against one another.

SCOTUS Ruling in Mahmoud v. Taylor Enables LGBTQ+ Discrimination, Harms True Religious Freedom

WASHINGTON, DC – Interfaith Alliance, a national leader in defending religious freedom and multi-faith democracy, is deeply disturbed by the Supreme Court’s ruling today in the case of Mahmoud v. Taylor. The decision clears the way for further discrimination against diverse groups and undermines public education. While falsely claiming the mantle of religious freedom, it in fact suppresses diversity and promotes exclusion.
