by Steve Klein The proposed bills for the 2024 Budget Session of the Wyoming Legislature include what amounts to a laundry list of cultural grievances. I don't say it lightly, and often regret saying it, but some things are appropriate for legislation—sometimes, there really "aughta be a law," as the Schoolhouse Rock narrative goes. But usually the...



 

 



By Karin McQuillan When President Trump nominated Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, the top constitutional lawyers in the country shared one predominant hope and expectation. Before the hearings, I spoke with five of the men who fought and won hard Supreme Court battles for religious freedom, property rights, and freedom of speech. All of them ...

 

 



By: Steve Klein Campaign finance law is based theoretically on the prevention of lighter forms of political corruption. Corruption is exemplified in bribery, which has long been outlawed and is rightly punished as a felony in Wyoming. Bribery law punishes the exchange of money for official acts; campaign finance law aims to curb a more nebulous inf...

by Steve Klein Defense Distributed has a mission to design and share open-source projects for personal manufacture of firearms, including the use of 3D printing.

Federal Election Commission and to open the doors to campaign finance "reform," or regulating free speech by restricting the money used to pay for it.

by Wyoming Liberty Group Staff Be careful where you're spreading holiday cheer this season. You could wind up in the slammer for six months or pay up to $750 in fines. According to an ordinance approved by the City of Cheyenne in 1897, it's technically unlawful to Christmas carol without a permit. The 120-year-old law isn't just a prime example of ...



 

 



Free speech is under attack from three main sources around the world. Government repression has increased. After the Soviet Union fell, Russia enjoyed a free-for-all. Alas, today Mr. Putin has tightened the muzzle again. A number of non-state actors are at that game. Journalists in Mexico who investigate corruption may end up dead. Jihadists shoot ...

 

 



by Stephen Klein In two important rulings from the Texas Supreme Court on April 15, the court assured the effectiveness of the state's Citizens Participation Act (TCPA), which was enacted in 2011. These cases, AgendaWise v. Abraham and Sullivan v. Abraham, affirmed the dismissal of two defamation actions brought by a public figure against an activi...

 

 



by Wyoming Liberty Staff The United States Supreme Court unanimously struck down a town's sign regulations in Reed v.
