ReligiousLiberty.TV is available as a background resource for journalists covering religious liberty law, First Amendment litigation, and the intersection of faith and public policy in America.
About ReligiousLiberty.TV
ReligiousLiberty.TV has operated since 2008 as an independent research resource tracking connections and patterns in U.S. religious liberty case law. The site covers First Amendment free exercise and establishment clause litigation, RFRA and RLUIPA cases, conscience rights, and related legal developments.
Unlike advocacy organizations, ReligiousLiberty.TV serves as a research tool — helping academics, journalists, legal professionals, and the public understand how religious liberty cases connect to each other across decades of litigation. The site’s case library is organized using AI analysis to surface patterns and connections that traditional legal indexes might miss.

How Journalists Can Use This Resource
Background Briefings
When a religious liberty case makes headlines, we can walk you through how it connects to prior decisions — the legal patterns that explain why this ruling matters and what it signals for future litigation. We offer these briefings as background to help inform your coverage, not as on-the-record commentary.
Case Connection Research
Our case library is built to show how cases relate to each other. If you’re covering a new ruling and need to understand its place in the broader legal landscape, the library can surface connections that aren’t immediately obvious from reading an opinion in isolation.
Historical Context
With coverage dating to 2008, we can provide the long view on how religious liberty doctrine has developed — useful context for features, analyses, and explainer pieces.
