A Law Association Wants to Rewrite our Future

The American Bar Association (ABA) holds enormous power over America’s law schools, our courts, and our nation’s future. The ABA has endorsed the most radical LGBTQ agenda we’ve ever seen in Washington: the so-called “Equality Act.”

The ABA demands at least five of its governing board members be LGBTQ or another minority (that’s 11%). However, it is considering reducing that to three members who have demonstrated a “commitment to DEI.”

If the Equality Act passes, the ABA’s agenda will have the backing of federal law, the result of which is that legal education and the courts will be changed for generations.

This is one of many reasons that the Equality Act (HR 15) cannot pass. We have the opportunity right now to push back if we act now. Hundreds of U.S. legislators are signed on to the Equality Act. Congress urgently needs to see your faxes today urging them to back off and block the Equality Act from passing.

When I was a law school dean, during an ABA lunch event for deans, the speaker suddenly announced that President Obama would repeal “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” to push the LGBTQ agenda on those who serve in our military. The entire room burst into wild applause. I felt like I had stepped into another universe. That moment made it clear — the ABA is fully captured by the LGBTQ agenda.

The ABA controls law school accreditation and legal education, both of which are the gateway for lawyer licensing.

To take the bar exam and become a licensed attorney in virtually every state, you must graduate from an ABA-accredited law school. If the ABA revokes accreditation, the law school will die.

Recently the ABA changed its accreditation standards to include “gender identity” as part of a required “non-discrimination” policy for law schools.

The ABA has already tried to force at least one Christian law school to comply. For now, it has not succeeded.

But the Equality Act would put the ABA’s LGBTQ agenda on steroids. It would unleash not just discrimination against people of faith but also would launch full-scale lawsuits against anyone who resisted this agenda.

We cannot allow Congress to open this Pandora’s box of religious persecution. This is why I’m asking you to act now by faxing Congress to oppose this outrageous bill.

The damage from the Equality Act would go far beyond law schools. It will require every school and college, even religious preschools and daycares, to promote gender ideology, cross dressing, confused men in girls' bathrooms, and many other things too graphic to mention.

All schools would be forced to welcome “gender fluid” children in every ad, brochure, and policy, or if they don’t comply, they would lose their license to operate.

Any schools that resist would be slowly choked out of the market. That includes your child’s or grandchild’s private Christian school and your church school.

This is how liberty dies — it is strangled by one rule, one regulation, and one school at a time. Send your faxes to tell Congress to block this bill and protect freedom.

Liberty Counsel Action is fighting this gender ideology on Capitol Hill — but we need your support. We’re meeting directly with lawmakers to stop the Equality Act. Help us stand in the gap for the next generation.

This battle is about the future of the next generation of leaders in America. If the Equality Act becomes law, we will lose Christian education.

If the Equality Act passes, its directives will reach into every corner of American life. Stand in financial support in this constant battle for freedom with a single gift or a recurring donation to strengthen our ability to fight this battle today.

We must draw the line.
