Governor Reeves Statement on Today's Supreme Court Decision on First Amendment

Statement

Date: June 30, 2023
Location: Jackson, MS
Issues: Civil Liberties and Civil Rights Judicial Branch

"Today's Supreme Court decision emboldens and strengthens our First Amendment rights. The government cannot force you to say things you don't believe. The government cannot force you to reject your Christian faith.

This is a loss for radical liberals who want to impose a state-enforced ideology from the top down. Mississippians and defenders of freedom everywhere absolutely reject this.

Free speech in America is stronger today because of this decision."
