After a federal judge granted a motion to immediately halt a new law targeting crisis pregnancy centers, Rep. Friess issued the following statement:
“I am proud to stand with my fellow House Republicans in their resolute opposition to SB1909, which we have consistently contended infringes upon our Constitutional right to free speech. The remarks made by US District Judge Johnston aptly highlight the alarming violation of the First Amendment that this bill represents. It is crucial to recognize that crisis pregnancy centers play a vital role in assisting women and serving as an invaluable resource.”
