It’s April Fool’s Day, but our latest case before the U.S. Supreme Court is no joke. Five years after the COVID hysteria, NY Gov. Kathy Hochul is still robbing New Yorkers of their religious freedom rights.
It’s insane that some politicians continue to peddle the COVID crisis to continue their ill-gotten tyrannical powers. But what happened to our clients is no laughing matter.
STOP NY Gov. Kathy Hochul’s continued COVID punishments by funding our legal work today and DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT.
John* runs a small, 15-bed faith-based senior living center in New York. For 50 years, the center’s employees have lived out their faith by serving elderly patients in their twilight years. Faith is the entire reason both patients and employees chose to live or work in John’s facility.
But NY Gov. Kathy Hochul demanded John and his employees violate their faith or risk losing their jobs and their medical licenses. Now, despite mountains of legal cases determining that no governor or politician can rob their citizens of religious freedom rights, NY Gov. Kathy Hochul refuses to obey clear federal law or the courts. She continues to irrationally insist she has more power than the Constitution and the federal government combined!
Liberty Counsel is dragging NY Gov. Hochul to the U.S. Supreme Court.
It’s been five years since Kathy Hochul and a host of other governors locked people in their houses — five years since Hochul banned people from leaving the state. She even sent state troopers to harass people who managed to escape NY, even briefly, during COVID. It’s been five years since Hochul unlawfully ordered every church closed, and every religious person to violate their faith and get the dangerous experimental shot or lose their job, their license to practice, their businesses, and their livelihoods.
The COVID crisis is long over. The hysteria generated by people like Gov. Hochul to exercise breathtaking thefts of power would be laughable now, if it weren’t still being executed against people like John and his employees.
It’s time to bury the COVID crisis, and the theft of power it generated, in the grave.
Over the last 36 years, Liberty Counsel has won 37 cases we argued or briefed before the U.S. Supreme Court. We aren’t done winning yet, but we need your direct financial support to fund our work.
Our clients never pay for our legal representation. Instead, they rely on YOU, the generous Liberty Counsel supporter to ensure religious freedom remains FREE. Please consider a special single gift or even a small recurring monthly donation to fund our legal work. When you do, a special challenge grant will DOUBLE the impact of your donation. Please, give generously.
