Court backs center challenging state probe over donor-subpoena fears
TL;DR
The Supreme Court unanimously sided with First Choice Women's Resource Centers, allowing them to sue in federal court to challenge a New Jersey subpoena for donor lists amid First Amendment concerns that the investigation could chill free speech and association, a procedural victory for groups challenging state probes into crisis pregnancy centers without ruling on the merits of the broader accusations.
