Alliance Defending Freedom filed a federal lawsuit Thursday against the Internal Revenue Service for failing to produce records on its secret deal with an activist group to investigate churches.

Chopping Down the Government Union Money Tree

Following Gov. Scott Walker’s (R-Wis.) lead reestablishing choice for public employees in whether they send their dues to a union is not only the morally correct decision, but it is the politically wise one.
