The Fight for Free Speech: Abortion, Voting, and Unions at t…
This winter season, the Supreme Court will hear three important cases including among our most precious rights: the freedom of speech. In Janus v. American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees, Council 31, public employees who have actually pulled out of union subscription are fighting for their voices to be heard. Minnesota Voters Alliance v. Mansky deals with whether states can prohibit voters from using tee shirts with political messages at ballot locations. In National Institute of Family and Life Advocates v. Becerra, pregnancy crisis centers are pushing back on California’s requirement that they promote the state’s complimentary abortion program. In all these cases, the federal government has attempted to determine what speech is acceptable. How might the Supreme Court justices respond to these cases? Will release speech win the day? Join us for a discussion with prominent lawyers who are involved in these 3 cases.
