What if I told you there was a 1st A case being argued at SCOTUS tomorrow that has united ADF, HRC, ACLU, AUL, SPLC, Cato, IJ, PETA, YAF, YAL, Students for Life, Becket Fund, various nuns, several universities, Christian missions groups, CAIR, and the Zionist Org. of America?
Would you think the correct narrative is that this is your basic everyday right v left fight? Judging from most of the coverage you might think that's the story. That's a shame. Several of those are on the same side for the 1st time. One would think that might be big news.
Tomorrow SCOTUS hears AFPF v Rodriguez & Thomas More Law Center v Rodriguez - whether the CA AG can demand charities give him a list of their donors before talking to people in CA. It would be nice if coverage reflected the diversity joining us. Reality: https://americansforprosperity.org/free-speech-case-attracts-support-from-hundreds-of-diverse-groups/
And if you're reading about the case and understand there's a demand (by 2 Senators and a member of Congress, not a party) for one Justice to recuse, @baseballcrank has the piece you need to read on that. https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/04/sheldon-whitehouse-wants-to-prevent-justice-barrett-from-protecting-free-speech/
"But, it's about elections..." you might have heard. It's not. These are c3 orgs. CA is trying to make election disclosure law apply to c3 orgs. This case has nothing to do with elections. In fact, Rep. Sarbanes' brief also makes that clear.
