Liberty Counsel filed a Petition with the U.S. Supreme Court, requesting review of a Florida Supreme Court ruling that permits the Florida Bar's involvement in controversial issues unrelated to the practice of law. 

In this case, the Bar became involved in a controversial issue by allowing its Family Law Section to file an amicus brief arguing that Florida's law banning homosexual adoption should be struck down. The Bar creates, controls, and partially funds the Family Law Section.

The Bar should remain neutral on all matters outside the regulation of attorneys and the legal profession. A state bar must not become an adversary against its members because it holds the key to employment. The gatekeeper to the legal profession offends the First Amendment rights of its members when it becomes an advocate for or against ideological causes outside the regulation of the practice of law.

Please pray that the Supreme Court agrees to hear this important case.
