People keep saying the biggest problem with yesterday's ruling is the violation of separation of powers, or that it was legislating from the bench. Those are problems. But not the biggest. The biggest problem is that the Court has imposed a harmful gender ideology on the nation.

News Release: U.S. Supreme Court denies South Bay Church's appeal to block Gov. Newsom's unconstitutional worship restrictions fcdflegal.org/u-s-supreme-co…
(2/2) We are currently evaluating our options. We have another appellate brief due in this case in the Ninth Circuit on June 5. If the case were to go back up to the U.S. Supreme Court after the Ninth Circuit rules again, we would not be held to such a high standard.
Statement from Charles LiMandri, lead counsel for South Bay Church: (1/2) The disappointing ruling in the U.S. Supreme Court was a close 5-4 vote, and was largely based on the very high standards required for our obtaining an emergency injunction.
