What the Heck v. Humphrey?

There’s nothing free about a free speech zone. Gabriel Olivier found that out the hard way.

Gabriel, a strong believer in sharing his faith with others, routinely stood on a public sidewalk hoping to have peaceful conversations with others. But his city adopted an unconstitutional ordinance that prohibits religious speech on that public sidewalk.

Watch First Liberty volunteer attorney Allyson Ho, who will be arguing this case before the justices, discuss the Heck decision, why the justices took this case and what she does to prepare for oral argument at the Supreme Court.
