A Great Win for a Conservative Consulting Firm and Free Speech!
We have great news! The city of Ann Arbor, Michigan, declared that it will not force Grant Strobl and Jacob Chludzinski to promote political beliefs that go against their own.
You might be surprised that such government coercion was even a possibility. But that is exactly what the text of a city law threatened.
Grant and Jacob knew this wasn’t right. After all, the right to speak freely transcends political beliefs—that’s at the heart of the First Amendment! So, Alliance Defending Freedom filed a lawsuit on their behalf.
Thankfully, the city of Ann Arbor has agreed not to apply this law to Grant, Jacob, and their political consulting business, ThinkRight Strategies.
The law makes it illegal for businesses to “discriminate” based on “political beliefs.” If Ann Arbor were to apply this law to ThinkRight, then advocacy materials ThinkRight creates for Republican candidates to promote limited government, lower taxes, and the sanctity of life, must also be created for Socialist candidates to promote government control, higher taxes, and abortion on demand.
That would contradict the entire purpose of Grant and Jacob’s mission to promote conservative ideals! Not only that, but it’s a blatant violation of their freedom of speech.

It's not a "win" until the law is completely struck down. The quickest way to do this would be to march into every black owned print shop and demand pro-KKK posters, with the shop's name crediting who printed them. Then sue the city for capricious enforcement when they refuse to prosecute the print shops who decline.
