Legal Work
 

To read about our precedent setting court victories and current legal cases use the search function at the bottom of this page. IRAC's legal department works on behalf of freedom of religion and conscience, religious pluralism, and equal rights. Originally initiated to win IRAC Attorneysrecognition and gain equal government funding for Reform & Conservative Judaism, IRAC’s legal department has since become experts on the issue of fair distribution of government funds for other minority groups as well as combating corruption. Other core issues include fighting racism, with special attention paid to the racist speech of state rabbis. IRAC also address threats of religious coercion as its goals include freedom from religion as much as freedom of religion. In this way, IRAC’s legal work now extends well beyond advocating for the rights of Reform Jews, and serves the greater public as the primary civil rights organization for religion and state issues in Israel.
