In December 2022, Volokh, Rumble, and Locals sued the state of New York after it enacted a law that forces websites to “respond [to],” “address” and “handle” protected speech that someone, somewhere finds “humiliating” or “vilifying” toward a group based on race, color, religion, or other protected categories. A federal judge ruled that New York’s law was likely unlawful, and after FIRE won an injunction against the law, New York appealed to the Second Circuit.
“The District Court correctly held that the New York law unconstitutionally targeted certain viewpoints, since there’s no ‘hate speech’ exception to the First Amendment,” said Volokh. “I expect the Second Circuit will agree.”
“New York’s law commands social media platforms to crack down on a variety of forms of protected speech, and fighting to defend that speech is the very reason Rumble exists,” said Rumble Chairman and CEO Chris Pavlovski. “We cannot let activist governments continue to chip away at the freedom of expression, which is one of the most basic of all human rights. We are grateful to our partners in this fight, Locals, Eugene Volokh, and FIRE, for helping to carry the torch of freedom with us.”
FIRE attorneys are available to discuss the upcoming arguments this week.
“Oral argument before the Second Circuit panel is an opportunity to show the court that New York’s unconstitutional overreach shouldn’t stand,” said FIRE Senior Attorney Jay Diaz. “We look forward to vindicating our clients’ right to manage their own online platforms as they see fit.”
