WASHINGTON, D.C. — Congressman Robert Aderholt (AL-04) today released the following statement on the ruling of the United States Supreme Court in “Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission.”
“Today’s ruling by the Supreme Court is one where all Americans should be happy. This is not a time that one side should be seen as a winner and the other side as a loser. This is a win for all Americans who believe that freedom of religion is fundamental.
“One of the main reasons the first people from Europe came to America was for religious freedom. And that is why protecting religious liberty was one of the founding principles of the Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights makes the United States unique among nations. Even two of the courts liberal members could not sidestep the First Amendment. This ruling was an important first round victory for religious freedom in an ongoing push-back against modern day political correctness.”
