ALERT: Don’t want your free speech banned on social media? Act now!

Monday, September 29, 2025, 9:23 am | Randy Thomasson

It’s one of the worst attacks on constitutional free speech we’ve ever seen.

Please add your voice to others demanding a veto of the awful SB 771, which would blatantly ban conservative speech on social media platforms. Put the spotlight on presidential wannabe Gavin Newsom!

Newsom now says he’s against censorship, so urge him to veto SB 771 today!

1. Web form: Go to https://www.gov.ca.gov/contact, then select “Legislation Issues/Concerns,” then “Leave a Comment,” then select “Con,” then type a subject such as “Veto SB 771”, then type or paste in your message, then enter your contact information, then click “submit.”

2. Phone: Call (916) 445-2841 Monday-Friday 9am-5pm: Tell Newsom’s office you’re calling to urge Governor Newsom to “VETO SB 771. This is blatant, unconstitutional censorship.”

The text of SB 771 lists the kind of speech it would censor:

“anti-immigrant slurs”

“anti-LGBTQ+ disinformation and harmful rhetoric”

“anti-Islamic bias”

“coercive harassment”

“hate-motivated harm”

In other words, anything and everything the New Communist Democrats don’t want to see or hear, or whatever they don’t want the general public to know.

From the Daily Caller 9/24/25:

“If people think platforms remove their content too much now, they should expect to see the pattern significantly intensify with this law,” Shoshana Weissmann, director of digital media at the R Street Institute, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “Rather than risk liability for showing users content one could argue (even if it doesn’t actually) violate a law, platforms will over-moderate and remove posts in order to stay out of court.”

Weissman added that platforms may also find it challenging to differentiate sarcasm, serious posts and sincere discussions about sensitive subjects, adding that over-removing content will be the only way they will be able to avoid liability.

Whoever would overthrow the Liberty of a Nation, must begin by subduing the Freeness of Speech.
