Supreme Court agrees to hear appeal from New Jersey faith-based pregnancy center

  • On Monday, June 16, 2025, the Supreme Court announced it would hear First Choice Women’s Resource Centers’ appeal concerning a 2023 subpoena issued by New Jersey, which is part of the state’s investigation into allegations that the center provided misleading information about abortion services.
  • This case originated when the chief legal officer of New Jersey issued a subpoena requesting information on donors, advertisements, and medical staff as part of an inquiry into allegations that the center falsely represented itself as providing abortion-related services.
  • First Choice, a faith-based pro-life group with five New Jersey locations, argued the subpoena chills its First Amendment rights to free speech and association and challenged the subpoena first in federal court before appealing to the Supreme Court.
  • First Choice characterized the subpoena as overly intrusive, while Attorney General Platkin emphasized that nonprofits, such as crisis pregnancy centers, must not engage in deceptive or fraudulent practices against state residents and affirmed the state's right to investigate. Meanwhile, the state maintained that the lower court's ruling was appropriate and that the case did not warrant Supreme Court intervention at this time.
  • This term, the Supreme Court will determine whether the center can immediately challenge the state attorney general’s subpoena in federal court or must first pursue remedies through the state court system, a decision that will clarify the extent of state oversight over crisis pregnancy centers.
