The Institute for Justice doesn't litigate your typical First Amendment cases.
They don't take cases involving protest bans, controversial speakers, or political dissent. Instead, the libertarian, public-interest law firm takes cases often ascribed to the margins of First Amendment concerns by the public and even some judges: cases involving occupational speech, commercial speech, and campaign finance.
On this episode of So to Speak, we speak with IJ President and General Counsel Scott Bullock about the origin of IJ's unique brand of First Amendment litigation. Bullock joined the organization at its founding in 1991 and was involved in all of its early free speech cases. We also discuss some of IJ's current cases and some common arguments against its stances on First Amendment issues.
