Alliance Defending Freedom

Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) is a U.S.-based conservative Christian legal advocacy group that promotes what it describes as religious freedom. It advocates for policies aligned with a Christian worldview, particularly on issues related to sexuality, gender, and abortion. ADF is newsworthy due to its involvement in several high-profile legal battles. Recently, its global arm has supported a South Australian woman's legal action related to school curriculum. The organization is also connected to the Louisiana officials' efforts to extradite a California doctor for providing abortion pills. Furthermore, ADF's influence is evident in the upcoming Supreme Court cases concerning transgender athletes, highlighting its active role in shaping legal precedents related to LGBTQ+ rights. Its involvement in these cases underscores its continued relevance and significance in the ongoing cultural and legal debates surrounding religious freedom, abortion, and LGBTQ+ rights in the U.S. and internationally.
