First Liberty Institute celebrates SCOTUS decision: ‘Religious liberty is alive and well’

Exclusive: And a legal organization whose mission is to defend the religious freedom of the Americans, describing the Supreme Court’s 9-0 ruling in favor of the Catholic Charitable Societies Office (CCB) “a great moment of religious freedom in America”, and a clear rejection of the government in religious life.

“This was not a difficult invitation,” Tiffany Dunkin, a legal colleague and lawyer at the First Freedom Institute, stressed in an interview with Fox News Digital, citing Scotos unanimously on Thursday to put out Wisconsin’s attempt to withhold religious tax exemption because CCB does not pass or provide Catholics only.

“What Wisconsin was doing … They used to say that the Catholic charitable institutions were not a religious institution because they were not preaching or served people of their faith,” Dunkin explained.

“What they were doing is to determine what it means to be religious.” “The first amendment prohibits the government.”

The case, a committee to review the Labor and Industry Party in Wisconsin, wondered whether the non -profit organizations are based on faith that provide public services “enough enough” to receive the same advantages that churches or places of worship enjoy.

Catholic charitable societies, affiliated with Superior and Wisconsin, provide critical care services for persons with disabilities and mental health needs. Wisconsin argued that these actions were not “religious in the first place”.

The Supreme Court opposed.

Judge Sonia Sotomoor, who writes the court’s opinion, clearly stated that the government has no authority to evaluate or classify the religious nature of charitable work.

Dunkin said that the consequences of the ruling beyond Weskonsen.

“This is actually a constant problem throughout the country,” I noticed.

“It is not only Wisconsin. The first Freedom Institute represents my father’s place in Brian, Ohio … they say this because you are running a shelter shelter 24-7, you are not. [religious]”

Other clients in Plano, the first Liberty in Texas in Colorado and Arizona, faced similar arguments from local governments, which are wondering whether saving food, clothes or shelter for those who need religiously in nature.

Dunkin said: “Although there are churches that do this type of work, governments say:” Well, you are not religious enough. “

Dunkin pointed out that the language of the court in the ruling, “confirms what the Supreme Court said nearly a century ago,” that the government cannot choose any expressions of faith.

“This sends a great message to people of all religions and all charitable organizations,” she said. “The government can not parasify you exactly what you can and what you cannot do, whether you are religious or religious, in order to obtain government benefit or participate in society.”

Dunkin warned, if Scotos was in the other direction, would have “serious effects” of charities and religious ministries worldwide.

“The government will be allowed to enter the religious faith of all religions more than our founding fathers, who we have ever intended,” she said. “The government cannot intervene and participate in deciding, choosing and choosing between a kind of religious activity and another.”

When he was asked what this means for churches and ministries on the ground, Dunkin’s answer was clear: “They should feel the courage to continue doing what they feel through their religious faith … especially in the charitable sense.”

For those who may see this as a legal victory for one time? Not so quickly.

“I really see this two different things,” she said. “One of them, stressing what was the first amendment always represents … but of course, to go forward, we hope and encourage religious freedom in America alive and in good health. Of course, the first freedom institute here to continue fighting for that.”
