Big First Amendment victory! The Middle District of Tennessee has repealed its unconstitutional attorney gag order rule, after Institute for Justice filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of Daniel A. Horwitz. He can now resume talking about his important civil rights work. ij.org/press-release/…

The Federal District Court in MD Tennessee silenced attorney Daniel Horowitz from speaking out about his public-interest cases. So Institute for Justice (Jared McClain, Ben Field, Dan King 🇺🇦) sued the court. And we won. The Court just changed its rule. Score one for the First Amendment!



US Court of International Trade just issued decision in case against Trump tariffs filed by Liberty Justice Center and me. All "Liberation Day"/IEEPA tariffs ruled illegal, and blocked by injunction! see link for opinion. I will have much more to say soon: cit.uscourts.gov/sites/cit/file…

Grok made this image to celebrate Ilya Somin and Liberty Justice Center defeating the government’s oppressive foreign doll tax.


The MI Ct. of App. just held in Reeves v. Wayne Co. that Institute for Justice has overcome #ProsecutorialImmunity. Our 1A claims can proceed against a prosecutor who charged our client with a crime because he sued to halt Detroit's #CivilForfeiture scheme. DO NOT MESS WITH IJ CLIENTS.
