Since it was formed in 1994, Alliance Defending Freedom has been at the center of a nationwide effort to limit the rights of women and LGBTQ+ people, all in the name of Christianity. The Southern Poverty Law Center has termed it an anti-LGBTQ hate group that has extended its tentacles into nearly every area of the culture wars. ADF aims to overturn same-sex marriage, enact a total abortion ban, and strip away the already minimal rights that trans people are afforded in the US. The organization is currently behind the lawsuit 303 Creative, Inc v Elenis, which the supreme court is expected to decide this month, and which could chip away at LGBTQ+ rights. It’s a case that is classic ADF a seemingly manufactured issue that the group has managed to chase through the American legal system. The ADF website shows the breadth of its involvement in right-wing culture wars. The organization touts its work opposing abortion, on opposing same-sex marriage, and opposing trans rights. In 2021, ADF backed a lawsuit brought by a teacher in Virginia who had said he would not use a transgender child’s preferred pronouns because that would amount to “sinning against our God”.
