NRB Joins Lawsuit Against Attorney General of California
NRB has joined a lawsuit alongside plaintiffs The Babylon Bee, Tim Pool, and Minds, Inc., to block AB 587, a California law that would require social media companies to report content deemed “hate speech” and “disinformation” to the government.
“We are proud to act on behalf of NRB members who would be impacted by or required to comply with this censorship law,” said Troy A. Miller, President & CEO of NRB. “In an environment where much religious viewpoint expression is considered ‘controversial’ speech, NRB is acting to stop the weaponization of new laws against Christian communicators.”
