Christian fliers no longer banned, Maricopa School District settles suit

We read:

"Maricopa Unified School District officials have changed the district's literature distribution policy and now allows equal treatment of Christian groups on campus. Alliance Defense Fund attorneys filed suit in July after a church and its pastor were told that they would not be permitted to distribute their fliers to students. The previous district policy had allowed a wide array of nonprofit organizations to distribute literature, but targeted religious material for exclusion.

"Christians shouldn't be discriminated against for expressing their beliefs," said ADF Senior Legal Counsel David Cortman. "We appreciate the school district's decision to do the right thing. The district recognized that the First Amendment is clear and that federal court precedent is overwhelmingly in favor of equal treatment for religious speech."

School officials told Pastor Jim Johnson that his church, First Baptist Church of Maricopa, would not be allowed to distribute fliers for its Awana Journey 24 Club, a weekly Bible study program for high school students, because the fliers' religious content and viewpoint were prohibited in the district's flier distribution program. Shortly after ADF filed suit, the district reversed course, allowing the Awana fliers to be distributed.
