It’s fitting that the Supreme Court has decided 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis in June—LGBTQ “Pride” Month. 

Like the well-known Masterpiece Cakeshop case, 303 Creative explores the tension between LGBTQ public accommodation rights and a business owner’s First Amendment right not to be forced to use her creative talents to express a message violating her religious convictions.

Thankfully, the majority has vindicated Colorado website designer Lorie Smith’s First Amendment freedoms, holding that she can’t be forced to create sites at odds with her deeply held religious beliefs. 

Colorado argued that once Smith created a wedding site, she had to sell it to gay and straight customers alike.

The Court has made it clear: Anti-discrimination laws aren’t intended to bludgeon creative workers into disseminating messages that violate their beliefs.

It’s a great day for the First Amendment and the Constitutional Rights of all Americans.
