Tony Perkins, president of the Christian conservative lobbying organization Family Research Council, said in a statement that the unanimous decision was “a substantial win for religious liberty.”

“In a time of growing hostility towards religion, the Supreme Court's reaffirmation of this fundamental freedom is even more critical,” he said.

Perkins went on to note that the case was evidence that “the Left refuses to tolerate the slightest deviation from their political orthodoxy regardless of who suffers as a result.”

“While we stop to celebrate and thank God that the Supreme Court reaffirmed religious liberty today, we are fully aware and prepared for the attacks of the Left on this fundamental, God-given freedom to continue unabated,” continued Perkins.
