BREAKING NEWS: U.S. Supreme Court Rewrites U.S. Law

The following statement is from Citizens for Community Values President Aaron Baer on the U.S. Supreme Court decision in the R.G. & G.R. Harris Funeral Homes v. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. CCV filed a brief with the Supreme Court in this case opposing redefining the word “sex”:

“The insurmountable harm done to women and girls today by the U.S. Supreme Court is devastating. It’s perhaps only matched by the harm done to voters, who elect leaders to make policy, not judges.”

“By a 6-3 decision, Justices Gorsuch, Roberts, Breyer, Ginsburg, Sotomayor and Kagan have put the privacy, safety, and equal opportunities of women at risk. Today’s decision by the Court will create more litigation, not less, and put businesses in the untenable of defending themselves in court against frivolous and baseless lawsuits because of a vague and chaotic court opinion.”

“Ultimately, this makes the work of defending religious liberty and the rule of law all the more essential. Citizens for Community Values has been in Ohio for nearly 40 years standing for families and freedom, and today’s court decision makes our fight for freedom all the more essential.”
