SPONSOR: Alliance Defending Freedom

Daniel Grand, a devout Orthodox Jew in Ohio, was ordered by his city to get a government permit just to host a small prayer meeting in his own home. Alliance Defending Freedom is now representing him at the U.S. Supreme Court, and ADF never bills its clients for their defense.
