Not Backing Down: Advocating for Parents, Students, and Freedom
Through California, a quiet revolution is unfolding in public schools, and parents are being deliberately cut out of the process. From hidden gender transitions to activist-driven curricula, radical agendas are displacing parental authority.
This is not a misunderstanding. It is an intentional movement. One that seeks to redefine truth, erase traditional values, and reprogram children without parental knowledge or consent.
Press Release | U.S. Department Of Justice Sides With Female Athletes In Title IX Battle Over Male Athlete On Girls’ Team
In a pivotal turn of events, the United States Department of Justice has formally entered the legal battle to save girls' sports in California, filing a Statement of Interest in a federal lawsuit brought by Advocates for Faith & Freedom on behalf of two courageous female high school athletes in a Southern California school district.
The State Does Not Own Your Children
Across the country, families of faith are facing mounting pressure to conform—to surrender their deeply held beliefs in exchange for government approval. In California, that pressure has turned into policy. The State has drawn a hard line between obedience to God and access to education, leaving countless Christian parents with an impossible choice. At Advocates for Faith & Freedom, we refuse to accept that choice as lawful or constitutional. That is why we are appealing the dismissal of our lawsuit against Senate Bill 277 (SB 277), a law that tramples parental rights and punishes religious conviction.

Fighting for Our Daughters: The Battle for Fairness and Protection in Girls’ Sports
Boys do not belong in girls’ sports. This should not be a revolutionary idea, yet, today, we find ourselves in a fight for common sense, biology, fairness, and truth. Girls who train their whole lives should not lose to policies that deny reality.
We see it time and again. A young athlete steps to the starting line, knowing she has put in the early morning workouts, the relentless effort, the sacrifices. But before the race even starts, she knows the odds are stacked against her. Boys are now taking away the level playing field she once had.
This is happening across California, and it is wrong. It is not just about sports. It is invading locker rooms, dorms, scholarships, and beyond. That is why Advocates for Faith & Freedom is not just exposing this injustice—we are fighting to end it.
Elections Matter: The Power to Shape Legislation and Defend Freedom
The 2024 elections were a political earthquake. After four years of reckless policies that attacked religious freedom, parental rights, gender, and national sovereignty, Americans took back the ballot box. With President Trump’s return to the White House, the nation is already shifting back toward policies that protect faith, family, and freedom.
