Organization: Freedom From Religion Foundation

Organization Description: The Freedom From Religion Foundation is a national nonprofit organization with 40,000 members and several chapters all over the country. Our purposes are to protect the constitutional principle of separation between state and church and to educate the public on matters relating to nontheism.

The hosts of “We Dissent” discuss the 2024 Supreme Court term — and its profound implications— on the podcast’s latest episode.

On episode 32, FFRF Deputy Legal Director Liz Cavell, Americans United Legal Director Rebecca Markert and American Atheists Vice President for Legal and Policy Alison Gill dissect the rulings that have recently come down from the Supreme Court. They explain how the court decided the two cases affecting abortion access. Then, they talk about several other decisions of the court that massively disrupt how the government functions and shift even more power away from the people.

“We Dissent,” which first aired in May 2022, is a legal affairs show for atheists, agnostics and humanists, offering legal wisdom from the secular viewpoint of women lawyers. The show is a collaboration of the Freedom From Religion FoundationAmerican Atheists and Americans United.
