Federal courts at every level have now recognized that these unilateral tariffs, imposed without Congressional authorization, are unlawful and cannot stand.

BREAKING: Leaked election returns from the Chicago Teachers Union show final results on the dues hike vote (Q1) and a provision making it more difficult for members to sue the union (Q2).
Q1 YES: 7,361 votes (37.1%)
Q1 NO: 12,468 votes (62.9%) ✅
Q2 YES: 9,770 (49.2%)
Q2 NO: 10,091 (50.8%) ✅
This is a stunning defeat for the union’s political leadership.
If it looks like an IEEPA tariff, operates like an IEEPA tariff, and is being used to replace the IEEPA tariffs the Court already rejected...
It's just as unlawful.
They may call them Section 301 tariffs. BUT businesses and the courts will recognize what they really are.
Judge Eaton’s latest filing makes an important point: the progress made so far toward refunding unlawful IEEPA tariffs ONLY happened because the court ordered the government to act.
We look forward to the June 9 hearing, where all parties will have the opportunity to address the remaining Phase 2 refund issues and, hopefully, move toward a practical resolution.
American businesses deserve their money back, and we will continue fighting to ensure those refunds are delivered quickly and fairly.
Hey, Bonta. The law is on our side.
PARENTS is LJC's new rapid-response litigation initiative to defend families when government officials and school bureaucrats attempt to exclude parents from critical decisions affecting their child. https://t.co/PtHzEbXy9e @1776_snowball
@4freedom321@AGRobBonta Thank you. Start local: know your district’s policies, attend board meetings, ask questions, and document concerns. If your school is keeping parents in the dark, report it through PARENTS. We’re here to help.
NEW: We've sent a letter putting California @AGRobBonta on notice. 600 CA school districts are actively violating federal law and the U.S. Constitution by using AB 1955 to justify policies that conceal students’ gender transitions from their parents. https://t.co/9GCOssqYUW
California's AB 1955 instructs schools to keep children's efforts to "gender transition" SECRET from their parents. If you find that idea disturbing, it means you're sane.
These policies not only harm kids but also interfere with parents' rights and expose school districts to federal complaints, investigations by @usedgov & civil lawsuits.
Our message to Bonta: Stop violating #parentsrights—or we'll see you in court.

Our lawsuit successfully defending @ChinoValleyUSD became the catalyst for California’s broader battle over parental rights.
Since then, we've filed numerous lawsuits and amicus briefs defending parents’ constitutional rights and challenging efforts by CA officials to exclude parents from critical decisions affecting their children.
The law is on our side. Stand with us as we fight for these brave parents and say NO to Bonta and the State of California. https://t.co/0TXoxcBBcO
As we continue our fight on behalf of CA families, LJC is launching the Parental Action and Rights Enforcement to ensure Notice, Transparency, and Safety (PARENTS) initiative.
PARENTS will serve as a nationwide legal watchdog and rapid-response litigation initiative for parents, school boards, and communities facing unlawful policies that hide critical information from families.

SCOTUS’s recent order in Mirabelli makes clear that a conflict with California law does NOT justify policies that violate parents’ rights.
We're calling on @AGRobBonta to immediately notify school districts to comply with federal law and the Constitution.
It’s past time for CA officials and school districts to realize they can’t legally use kids to conduct gender transition experiments at school.
Districts creating and enforcing these secrecy policies are violating FERPA and the First and Fourteenth Amendments. https://t.co/wR5l5kWJE4
A federal court just confirmed that Judge Brown has viable First Amendment and due-process claims after he was removed from the bench without notice or a hearing.
The court did not reinstate him today—but it rejected the effort to dismiss his case. This fight is far from over.

LAWSUIT FILED on behalf of Judge James Brown, a retired Cook County judge who was removed from his judicial recall appointment after Illinois Supreme Court justices retaliated against him for exercising his First Amendment rights as a private citizen.
With the 2018 Janus Decision, SCOTUS said you do not have to belong to a public sector union to keep your job. So why do so many need help opting out? Unions don't like losing $$.
11 years ago TODAY. In 2015, LJC and @RightToWork filed a lawsuit challenging unconstitutional forced union fees on behalf of @MarkJanusLJC, a non-union state employee.
We took the fight to #SCOTUS and WON—restoring the #1A rights of free speech and freedom of association to millions of government employees nationwide.

For years, Stacy Davis Gates has blown smoke at @CTULocal1 members asking a simple question: Where are the audits?
If there's nothing to hide, she should clear the air.
