Philip Hamburger asked me to post these FAQs about Murthy v. Missouri. Philip is CEO of the New Civil Liberties Alliance, which represents most of the individual plaintiffs in Murthy. I am on the NCLA's board.
PHILIP HAMBURGER:
Next Monday, the Supreme Court will hear arguments in Murthy v. Missouri considering whether it should sustain the injunction awarded to the plaintiffs in the Fifth Circuit. The plaintiffs are Missouri, Louisiana, and five individuals (mostly scientists) whose speech was suppressed by social media platforms at the behest of the government. These FAQs address some crucial questions in the case.
