Case Summary

A faith-based women’s shelter in Anchorage filed this lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Alaska. The shelter, represented by Alliance Defending Freedom, sued the Municipality of Anchorage and the Anchorage Equal Rights Commission for violating the organization’s First and Fourteenth Amendment rights.

A faith-based women’s shelter in Anchorage filed this lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Alaska. The shelter, represented by Alliance Defending Freedom, sued the Municipality of Anchorage and the Anchorage Equal Rights Commission for violating the organization’s First and Fourteenth Amendment rights. It alleged that Anchorage, acting in bad faith, had engaged in irrelevant, harassing, and overreaching investigations of the shelter, baselessly accusing the shelter of fair housing law violations and sex and gender identity discrimination.

On November 1, 2018, the shelter sought a preliminary injunction prohibiting Anchorage from applying the city’s non-discrimination ordinance in a manner that violated the shelter’s First and Fourteenth Amendment rights, or its rights under Article 1 of the Alaska Constitution. The shelter alleged that as a homeless shelter, it was exempted from the non-discrimination ordinance by the explicit terms of the ordinance. The court granted the preliminary injunction on August 9, 2019. 406 F.Supp.3d 776.

The following month, the parties presented a proposed consent decree to the court. Anchorage agreed not to enforce the non-discrimination ordinance against the shelter’s overnight living space policies, allowing the shelter to keep its overnight housing open only to persons who were determined to be female at birth. Anchorage also agreed to pay the shelter $1 in damages and $100,000 in attorneys’ fees and costs.

The court issued the consent decree on October 2, 2019.
