EXCERPT:
A new free speech law named after slain Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk is “dehumanizing,” according to the Secular Student Alliance.
The bill, which will go into effect on July 1, seeks to protect free speech on campus and punish unruly disruptions of speakers. Republican Governor Bill Lee signed the law on May 5.
“What this law actually does is protect invited speakers – no matter how extreme or dehumanizing their views – while making it riskier for students to push back,” the Secular Student Alliance stated in a news release sent to The College Fix prior to the signing of the bill.
