You won’t want to miss the April issue of AU’s Church & State magazine! Our cover story analyzes the docket of current Supreme Court cases that are imperiling church-state separation, public education and LGBTQ+ equality.

While you’re there, I encourage you to check out AU President and CEO Rachel Laser’s column focusing on how young AU supporters are committed to preserving democracy and church-state separation; gain insight into how Christian Nationalists rewrote history to advance the lie that the U.S. Constitution is based on the Ten Commandments; and check out two excellent first-place essays from AU's 2024 Student Contest.
