Louisiana Citizens Against Censorship

Since 2021, we have closely followed the escalating censorship efforts and resulting lawsuit over book removals in Llano County, Texas. Throughout this fight, we have stood firmly with Leila Little and her fellow plaintiffs, who have courageously defended every American’s First Amendment right to access information. We were deeply troubled when, in May 2025, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that public library collection development could be treated as government speech—an alarming blow to intellectual freedom and the right to receive information. Today, we are proud to announce that, in partnership with the First Amendment Clinic at Tulane University and the Louisiana Library Association, we have filed an amicus brief supporting the plaintiffs as this vital case moves before the United States Supreme Court.
