Dear Friend,
The Biden administration is making brash moves to mandate dangerous gender identity ideology on religious college campuses.
President Biden has spared no effort in attempting to insert a radical gender ideology into every level of federal policy-from endorsing the mutilation of gender-confused children to nominating Rachel Levine, a man who claims to be a woman, as assistant secretary of health.
They are so committed to this perverse ideology that it means disregarding religious freedom-and truth.
And now the administration is threatening fines and jail time to strong-arm people of faith into falling in line.
Religious freedom needs protecting. And you can help do that today in one critical case.
The Biden administration has issued a mandate forcing colleges and universities to open their dorms, bathrooms, and showers to members of the opposite sex?forcing religiously devout students to share private spaces, violating their closely-held beliefs.
This is blatantly unconstitutional. And one brave college in Missouri is standing up against this edict.
The College of the Ozarks is a religious school in Missouri and the Christian faith is integral to how it operates.
Not surprisingly, the college believes that sex is unchangeable. And it runs its dorms accordingly. It doesn't buy into the left's dangerous gender ideology that denies biological realities.
But now, the Biden administration is trying to FORCE the college to violate its religious beliefs and allow men and women to share dorm rooms ... and even showers. We've already seen what happens when private companies ignore truth in favor of wokeness.
With the help of ADF attorneys and the support of people like you, College of the Ozarks is challenging Biden's outrageous mandate in federal court.
The directive applies to all colleges where any student can apply-even private, religious colleges that turn down every cent of federal money. That means there's no way out.
If College of the Ozarks doesn't comply with the mandate, it could face fines above six figures.
It's time for believers and those who see the danger in woke gender ideology to send a CLEAR message to the Biden administration: We will not stand by and watch as you trod on our religious freedom.
Will you help fuel our case by chipping in $25, $50, or even $100 today?

Today, your gift will help defend College of the Ozarks and stand up for all faith-based colleges that shouldn't be forced to violate their faith-or common sense.

College of the Ozarks isn't backing down in the face of bullies

The Wall Street Journal dubbed College of the Ozarks "Hard Work U." That's because every student at the college has to work.
Students work for at least 15 hours per week at one of nearly 100 jobs on campus. And they graduate without student debt because of it.
Ninety percent of the students have serious financial need. Some are the sons and daughters of missionaries. Some grew up in foster care. Others have 10 siblings and parents who run a farm.
These students aren't afraid of a little hard work or an uphill climb. And neither is the college's longtime president (now president emeritus), Dr. Jerry Davis.
Dr. Davis, born during World War II, was one of three boys abandoned by their parents. Raised by his grandparents, Dr. Davis found his purpose in a work school. And now College of the Ozarks finds itself at the center of a major federal lawsuit.
College of the Ozarks isn't willing to sacrifice its identity for anyone's agenda.
Friend, will you stand right now with College of the Ozarks against the Biden administration's aggressive overreach?

The Biden administration continues to be hostile to religious freedom

"The Biden administration is very aggressive in pushing the LGBTQ agenda. And they don't respect free speech at all," ADF attorney Julie Marie Blake, who represents the college, says. "They think everyone who's against them is a bigot, and they intend to give no quarter unless directly ordered by a court to do so-and, even then, not until they've exhausted all appeals."
Colleges that refuse to comply with the directive risk paying massive fines and even criminal penalties. Bankruptcy could result. Even prison. This is wrong.
This case is about fighting back-about countering an administrative agenda that is at direct odds with religious freedom. It's about ensuring that a radical gender ideology isn't forcefully imposed on anyone. And, ultimately, it's about guaranteeing that faith-based colleges can operate based on their faith.
Friend, will you help defend College of the Ozarks and protect religious freedom today?
Your gift will send a message loud and clear. It will tell the Biden administration and other government officials that-like College of the Ozarks and Dr. Davis-you will NOT allow religious freedom to be trampled.
Please give today.
