The campaign has connections to anti-LGBT and anti-abortion laws
The chain of influence behind “He Gets Us” can be followed through public records and information on the campaign’s own site. The campaign is a subsidiary of The Servant Foundation, also known as
the Signatry.
According to research
compiled by Jacobin, a left-leaning news outlet, The Servant Foundation has donated tens of millions to the
Alliance Defending Freedom, a conservative Christian legal group. The ADF has been involved in several legislative pushes to curtail LGBTQ rights and quash non-discrimination legislation in the Supreme Court.
CNN has reached out to the Servant Foundation for comment.
While donors who support “He Gets Us” can choose to remain anonymous, Hobby Lobby co-founder David Green claims to be a big contributor to the campaign’s multi-million-dollar coffers. Hobby Lobby has famously been at the center of several legal controversies, including the support of
anti-LGBTQ legislation and a successful years-long legal fight that eventually led to the Supreme Court
allowing companies to deny medical coverage for contraception on the basis of religious beliefs.

Green discussed his involvement in the campaign, and the Super Bowl ad spots,
during a November 2022 interview with conservative talk show host Glenn Beck.
“We’re trying to unify the American people around the confounding love and forgiveness [of Jesus].”
That’s bullshit in my humble opinion. ntfldbyw
