by MFI News

In Yesterday’s NY Times, Samuel Brinton, the discredited poster child for Christian Counseling Bans, was given a platform to tell the world what he’s really after.

Counseling Ban Update: You did it!

by MFI News

I have good news to report on the Counseling Ban legislation!  Both the MA House and Senate held their final formal sessions for 2017 this week and the bill did NOT come out of committee for a vote.  This means that the bill cannot be voted on until 2018 at the earliest.  While the inner […]

Gender X

Newly filed legislation on Beacon Hill would add a third sex designation on state-issued identification, such as drivers’ licenses.  If Senator Karen Spilka of Ashland is successful in passing her bill, “X” will become a third option for sex, alongside “M” and “F”.  Spilka claims, “It is the person’s identity, the person who has that […]

Contact your legislator: repeal the Bathroom and Locker Room Law

A year ago the Bathroom-Locker Room Law went into effect and many of the results we predicted have begun. On Christmas Eve of 2016, less than three months after it went into effect, a man entered a women’s room in a TJ Maxx store, and remained there for over a half an hour taking pictures […]

We agree with radical feminists (on something)

by MFI News

“Radical feminists” typically differ from pro-family advocates on many issues. So, why are the Women’s Liberation Front (WoLF), a self-described radical feminist group, and the Family Policy Alliance (FPA), MFI’s national public policy affiliate, teaming up? Because they both recognize that preserving women’s safety in private spaces is critically important (as well as common sense). This week, […]

Does a Woman Have the Right to Private Spaces Without Males Present?

by MFI News

“How can we teach our daughters that their ‘no means no’ when people call them bigots for not wanting to share their showers with men?”  That’s an awfully good question, and I’m glad to tell you that our friend Kaeley Triller Haver is demanding answers in a must-read article in National Review this week. We introduced you […]

BREAKING: Major progress on the battle for privacy, safety and freedom

by MFI News

I have great news to share with you on two fronts today. First, early this morning, our national partners at Alliance Defending Freedom filed a lawsuit on behalf of four Massachusetts churches in response to the transgender bathroom law’s unprecedented and unconstitutional intrusion into the First Amendment rights of our pastors, priests and houses of worship.  If […]

10 Days Left to Keep MA Safe: We still need your help

Yesterday morning, I spoke with Fox News reporter Todd Starnes.  Our fight against the bathroom law here in MA has started getting national attention.  In this Fox News article, I discussed with Todd the threats to religious liberty, pastors and churches that this law will bring when it goes into effect next month.
