Legal Battle for Jack Phillips
Jack Phillips, owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop, faced a legal battle in 2017 at the U.S. Supreme Court, where he won against the state of Colorado for mistreating his religious beliefs. Despite the Colorado Civil Rights Commission dropping charges against him in a recent case of harassment by a man claiming to be transgender, a lower court ruled in favor of the ongoing harassment. Phillips, supported by Alliance Defending Freedom, continues the legal fight at the Colorado Supreme Court for his right to refuse requests for custom cakes that conflict with his beliefs.
Support and Action
Individuals are urged to support Jack Phillips as he faces legal challenges in Colorado. The public is encouraged to pray for him, share their prayers online, and participate in a 'Justice for Jack' rally outside the Colorado Supreme Court. The appeal, defended by Alliance Defending Freedom, aims to address the court's ruling that Phillips should be compelled to bake a gender transition cake against his beliefs. More information on this case and ways to support Phillips can be found at ADFLegal.org.
