ADF vows to protect two veterans’ memorials on public land in New Mexico and Washington. Their future is uncertain if the ACLU and its allies continue their mission to rid public lands of all religious symbols. Learn more.

A large, black cross atop a stone monument sits prominently in Taos, New Mexico’s historical district. An iron sculpture depicting a soldier kneeling before a cross is part of a city park in Rainier, Washington. These two memorials, both dedicated to our nation’s veterans, are under the careful eye of ADF attorneys thanks to our friends at the American Legion. Working in alliance with ADF, Legion members are on a mission, searching the country for memorials with religious symbols on publicly owned land. Ensuring these testimonies to our nation’s heroes stay put is essential to our religious freedom. If these symbols of our country’s respect and admiration can be torn away, what is next? Every religious symbol seen in public would be vulnerable. From past experience, we know that is a very real possibility.

Learn more about how you can help protect these monuments and the freedoms these heroes fought so hard to defend.

Free Speech and Pagan Pride - July 1, 2008
The first American settlers were Christians who came here to escape religious persecution. And in doing so, they also provided a haven for others who were not free to worship God in the manner they chose. But today, without legal support, too many Christians are not free to preach God’s Word on American soil. A situation that arose recently in Grand Rapids, Michigan, shows that the very freedoms the pilgrims risked their lives to obtain are not always guaranteed.
