Religious freedom issues are frequently in the news. These issues are quite diverse, covering a broad range of topic areas, such as:
• Religion in the public schools
• Posting of Ten Commandments in public places
• Evolution/Creation issues in schools
• School Vouchers and Tax Funding of Religion
• Separation of Church and State
• Land Use Disputes involving churches
• Religion in Public Life issues, like “under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance
• Prayer in city council meetings, or other public places
• Religion in the Workplace
• Free speech issues involving Religion
This list is incomplete, since new conflicts and news items arise weekly. Whenever you think of religion in public life, and religious liberty in particular, contact the Seventh-day Adventist Church State Council, for a balanced, intelligent and articulate discussion of these issues.
Bio of Alan J. Reinach, Esq.
Alan J. Reinach is an attorney, a Seventh-day Adventist minister, and serves as president of the Seventh-day Adventist Church State Council, the oldest public interest organization in the western United States devoted exclusively to issues of religious freedom.
The organization has provided counsel to thousands of Californians on issues like: religious accommodation in the workplace; exemption from labor union membership on religious grounds; religious land use disputes; and prisoner’s access to religious services.
The Seventh-day Adventist Church State Council also monitors state legislation in a five state western region, including California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah and Hawaii, insuring that legislation does not interfere with the rights of conscience and of religious institutions to carry out their religious mission.
The Council also participates with friend-of-the court briefs in the major religious freedom cases in both state and Federal courts. Reinach has authored and filed such briefs in the Supreme Courts of both California and the United States.
This ministry is also committed to educating the public concerning religious freedom issues, sponsoring public events throughout its five state western region, publishing brochures, producing public service radio spots, and appearing frequently as a guest on talk radio shows.
Reinach is a graduate of the State University of New York at New Paltz, with special honors in History, in 1984, and received his law degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1987. He is a member of the New York and California bars, numerous Federal bars and the U.S. Supreme Court bar. He has served as President of the Seventh-day Adventist Church State Council since 1994.
