ANN ARBOR, MI — On Monday, December 5, the Supreme Court held oral arguments in 303 Creative LLC and Lorie Smith v. Elenis, (“303 Creative”) a case that will decide whether Colorado can force Christians to speak against their deeply held religious beliefs. Erin Mersino, Thomas More Law Center’s Chief of Supreme Court and Appellate Practice, authored a Friend of the Court brief supporting 303 Creative, owned by Lorie Smith, a Christian who believes in the Biblical view of marriage as a sacred bond exclusively between one man and one woman. Erin Mersino also attended the oral argument.

I joined 12 of my Republican colleagues in a letter to Senate Republican leadership opposing moving forward with the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2023, unless the Senate votes on an amendment to prohibit discharges from the Armed Forces solely because of COVID-19 vaccination status. The amendment will also reinstate service members already discharged, with back pay.

Bottom line: the COVID-19 vaccine does not prevent infection or transmission. So why does the Biden administration force our men and women in uniform to take it?

Biden Opens Up Oil Drilling - Just Not in the U.S.A.

You may not believe this, but President Biden took steps this week to create oil drilling jobs.

But there’s a catch.

That oil – and those jobs – are in the rogue nation of Venezuela.

You read that right.

Rather than tapping into our own vast oil and gas reserves to lower prices at the pump and create good, family-wage American jobs, President Biden has chosen to make us more dependent on one of the world’s most notorious dictators.

And that’s not all.
