JUSTICE GINSBURG: A POWERFUL VOICE FOR REAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM

“As the only organization solely dedicated to protecting the Constitutional principle of separation of church and state, we at Americans United esteem and honor Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s lifelong dedication to real religious freedom, and her influence on many key Supreme Court decisions on this issue in her long service to the court and the American people.”

Americans United Demands Orange County, Calif., School Board End Unconstitutional Prayer Practice At Public Board Meetings

“The Orange County Board of Education’s first priority should be educating children – not promoting board members’ religious beliefs,” said Alex J. Luchenitser, AU's associate vice president & associate legal director. “Incorporating prayers or any other religious content into a public school board meeting is a clear violation of religious freedom."

Justice Ginsburg was a staunch supporter of true religious freedom on a #SCOTUS that in recent years has chipped away at church-state separation by granting religious privilege to those who would use their faith to discriminate, to exclude or to deny equality. #RIPRBG
