The Clinic vigorously defends its clients’ free speech rights, across the political spectrum, to achieve the best results possible for those clients. The First Amendment Clinic provides students the opportunity to work on cases that involve freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedom of assembly and the right to petition by working on cutting-edge litigation, advocacy, and policy work, often across interdisciplinary fields.
The Clinic’s work falls generally into two overlapping buckets: free press cases pursued on behalf of local journalists and media outlets as part of our Local Journalism Project; and free speech cases that extend across disciplines, impacting the work of those targeted based on their expression.
