ACLJ Just Filed 2 Major Lawsuits
Earlier this week, we told you how the ACLJ had filed a lawsuit against the Smithsonian after its employees targeted and harassed a group of pro-life students, teachers, and parents when they tried to visit the National Air and Space Museum.
Now we’ve just filed a new lawsuit against the National Archives for the same discrimination against pro-lifers – on the same day. If the radical Left thinks it can weaponize taxpayer-supported institutions to target pro-lifers, it’s in for a rude awakening from the ACLJ. In this particular incident, our four clients, including a woman and her daughter, were told to remove their pro-life shirts if they wanted to enter. It’s infuriating.
And now we have the strength of 40 Members of Congress taking up the case to defend pro-life citizens from being targeted. An official letter signed by 40 U.S. Senators and Representatives was just sent to Smithsonian Institute officials demanding an explanation for why it allowed employees to abuse and kick out pro-life visitors because of their hats. And the letter cited the work of the ACLJ to bring this offense to their attention:
"According to the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), 'Once in the museum, [the students] were accosted several times and told they would be forced to leave unless they removed their pro-life hats. The group all wore the same blue hat that simply said, ‘Rosary PRO-LIFE.’ Other individuals in the museum were wearing hats of all kinds without issue' and 'The museum staff mocked the students, called them expletives, and made comments that the museum was a ‘neutral zone’ where they could not express such statements.'
As Members of Congress, we are unaware of any laws, rules, or regulations prohibiting members of the public from wearing pro-life hats inside Smithsonian office buildings. Furthermore, there is a large body of jurisprudence reinforcing citizens’ First Amendment rights on public property. As a federal entity and the recipient of more than $1 billion in federal funds every year, there should be no debate as to whether the First Amendment applies to the Smithsonian. We are deeply concerned about this unjust expulsion of young Americans from museums—subsidized with taxpayer dollars—for wearing apparel that your staff disagreed with."
It’s gratifying to see Congress standing up for pro-life Americans as we head into court to defend them.
Today’s full Sekulow broadcast includes more details about our two major lawsuits to defend pro-life Americans, including students, from being targeted and harassed, as well as more discussion with Sec. Mike Pompeo.
