John,
Free Speech For People is working tirelessly to defend voters nationwide from escalating efforts to suppress the vote in 2025 and beyond.
In Nevada, we filed a motion last month on behalf of the NAACP Tri-State Conference of Idaho-Nevada-Utah to dismiss a lawsuit filed by the Trump campaign and the Republican National Committee just weeks before the November 2024 general election. Their lawsuit seeks to unlawfully and unconstitutionally purge the voter rolls based on false and repeatedly debunked claims that non-citizens are casting ballots in elections. A hearing on this and two other motions to dismiss the case is scheduled for March 5, 2025.
Meanwhile, in Colorado, we filed a reply brief last week challenging the dismissal of our case against the United States Election Integrity Plan (USEIP) for illegal voter intimidation. The reply brief corrects the factual record and the defendants’ flawed legal assertions. The plaintiffs explain that despite making ad hominem attacks on the plaintiffs, the defendants' briefs “do nothing to rehabilitate the district court’s judgment, which rests on error after error.” Free Speech For People filed an opening brief in the appeal in November. The United States Department of Justice also filed that month an amicus brief in support of NAACP Colorado, LWV Colorado, and MFV’s appeal.
As our republic faces unprecedented threats under this new administration, Free Speech For People remains committed to protecting the right to vote and defending free and fair elections, the bedrock of our democracy.
Onward,
Free Speech For People
