We have retained counsel and are prepared to formally serve our demand letter on the U.S. District Court and the attorneys responsible for this unconstitutional fishing expedition.
Our demands are clear:
Immediate withdrawal of the subpoena for Grand American Unions account information
$5 million in compensatory damages for harassment, chilling of speech, and violation of our First and Sixth Amendment rights
Public acknowledgment that the demand for personal information was an overreach and constituted state-sponsored intimidation
This is not a negotiation. This is a warning shot. We will not be bullied into silence by bureaucrats using the machinery of the state to dox political opponents. You wanted our names? You'll get them—on the plaintiff's line of a federal civil rights lawsuit.
Every day this subpoena stands is another day of damages accruing. The clock is ticking.
