John, We’ve achieved a major victory for voters in Colorado and for the continued fight for our democracy. A federal judge in Colorado has just ruled that the leaders of the United States Election Integrity Plan (USEIP), an extremist organization with ties to QAnon and the January 6 insurrection, cannot escape a trial in our lawsuit seeking to stop their illegal voter intimidation campaign in Colorado. USEIP has been conducting a door-to-door campaign of intimidation at voters’ homes, in which its agents (sometimes armed) question voters about their method of voting, interrogate them about so-called fraudulent ballots, levy baseless accusations of fraud against voters, and take photographs of voters’ homes to store in a database. The defendants tried to prevent the case from going to trial by filing multiple motions, and even countersuing the voting rights organizations that Free Speech For People represents in this lawsuit (the NAACP of Colorado, League of Women Voters of Colorado, and Mi Familia Vota) for defamation and abuse of process. But their tactics failed. On January 23, 2023, the court dismissed the defendants’ defamation and abuse of process counterclaims. Then on January 31, the court denied their motion for judgment on the pleadings and, with one minor exception, their motion for summary judgment, allowing all claims to proceed against the individual leaders of USEIP. With the counterclaims dismissed and the court agreeing that the core voter intimidation claims may proceed, our case is now on its way to trial. But for us to win this case, we’re going to need all the help we can get. Will you support our fight against voter intimidation in Colorado by making a donation today?
