AFBO v. Bablitch - Bablitch was AFBO's first lawsuit, filed in March 2006 against the Wisconsin State Employees Combined Charitable Campaign for excluding AFBO members from eligbility because they exercise their constitutional and statutory right to hire on the basis of faith. The federal court for the Western District of Wisconsin ruled in favor of AFBO's members on September 27, 2006, ordering declaring the exclusion to be "religious discrimination" and ordering state officials to allow religious organizations equal participation in the state charitable program.
