I canât believe the Biden administration is doing this
Dear Babylon Bee Subscriber,
Did you see the email below from Alliance Defending Freedom?
The Biden administration has politicized foster care and adoption. It's forcing ministries to violate their faith if they want to find loving homes for kids in need.
This is a vicious, bullying tactic. And we must stand up to bullies-even if their title is "President".
Will you take just a couple of moments out of your day and add your name to the petition? You can sign it here.
For freedom.

| | Dear Babylon Bee Subscriber,
The Biden administration is trying to force a 120-year-old Christian ministry that serves children and families through adoption and foster care to surrender its deeply held beliefs on faith, family, and marriage.
If the ministry refuses to place children in homes that violate its faith commitments, the federal government is threatening to cut off critical funding for Holston United Methodist Home for Children. The funding helps families throughout East Tennessee shoulder the additional costs of meeting a child's basic needs.  Â
Holston Home provides hope and healing for a brighter future by sharing the love of Jesus with abused and neglected children and families struggling with life's challenges.Â
Holston Home's goal is always to do what is best for the children, whether it's reuniting them with family, adoption, or helping them become successful adults. Their professional staff works to strengthen families and help kids overcome any emotional traumas or other hardships they may have experienced.
But now, because the Biden administration has rescinded much-needed religious exemptions to an Obama-era rule that forced ministries to violate their faith, Holston Home is left to choose between:Surrendering its beliefsLosing fundingOr exiting the adoption and foster care fields in violation of its religious commitmentsAlliance Defending Freedom (ADF) has filed a lawsuit on behalf of Holston Home against the administration in federal court.
ADF is the world's largest legal organization committed to protecting religious freedom, free speech, marriage and family, parental rights, and the sanctity of life. We defend your most cherished liberties in Congress, state legislatures, and courtrooms across the country-all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court if necessary.
We need your help. Will you take a moment to add your name to this petition asking the government to stop removing protections for faith-based adoption and foster-care agencies? You will help send a strong message against government overreach.
Thanks in advance.
