Liberty Counsel Exposed
Description

Liberty Counsel is a 501c3 tax-exempt nonprofit organization that has been designated an anti-gay hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. Liberty Counsel is a legal organization advocating for anti-LGBT discrimination under the guise of religious liberty.

The Liberty Counsel was founded by conservative activists Mathew (“Mat”) Staver – an attorney and former dean at Liberty University School of Law – and his wife Anita. Mat Staver chairs the Counsel; his wife Anita is the president. The Counsel bills itself as a non-profit litigation, education and policy organization that provides legal counsel and pro bono assistance in cases dealing with religious liberty, “the sanctity of human life”, and the family. The Liberty Counsel shares a close affiliation with Liberty University (founded by the late Jerry Falwell in Lynchburg, Va.) , especially the university’s school of law. The partnership includes the Washington, D.C.-based Liberty Center for Law and Policy, which conducts legal research and writes about current legislation and policies.
