City of Thornton to review free speech challenge

Article Contributed on: 7/6/2009 8:42:34 AM

On Tuesday, July 7th, the City of Thornton will review the city council policy that was enacted disallowing businesses to speak at community events.

The term "no business may speak" was a major red flag for me.

You may see the city documents stating review of this policy at http://www.cityofthornton.net/cclk/council/Planning_Sessions/070709_ps.pdf

The change in this policy comes after Denver Metro ACLU became aware, involved, and challenged the policy.

Please call or email your city council persons and ask them to remove the limit of free speech in Thornton.
