Fox News
Reps. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., and Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., are suing two California cities that they allege violated their First Amendment rights.
Gaetz and Taylor Greene filed the lawsuit along with their funding committees. They're seeking an injunction that would ban cities from "coercing private venues from entering into facilities use contracts with Plaintiffs for future political rallies." They also requested damages for emotional distress. Patrick Hauf is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
Ten advocacy groups are named in the lawsuit, which details how they allegedly pressured the cities to get the rallies canceled.
