Judge Leon Emphasizes First Amendment Liberties for Retired Servicemembers

In a recent decision, Judge Leon commented on the First Amendment liberties of retired servicemembers.

The judge stated that Secretary Hegseth and other defendants should acknowledge the wisdom and expertise retired servicemembers have contributed to public discussions and debates on military matters over 250 years, rather than seeking to diminish their First Amendment rights.
