On Thursday, Just the News<\/a> posted an article about a Justice Department subpoena requesting over five years of information from the Eagle Forum of Alabama about its legislative activities.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The Eagle Forum of Alabama, a conservative nonprofit, has worked since 2017 on the “Alabama Vulnerable Child Compassion and Protection Act,” which went into effect as law in May 2022.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The legislation<\/a> made it a felony for physicians to perform sex-change surgeries, to administer or prescribe puberty blockers or hormones to minors.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The law also prohibits school personnel from withholding information from parents about their child’s sexual identity.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The group, which filed a motion Wednesday to quash the subpoena,\u00a0said<\/a> the Justice Department’s request “is\u00a0broad, intrusive, and meant to harass.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

Eagle Forum President Kristen Ullman said the subpoena has much larger implications.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“If the DOJ can weaponize a subpoena, any American can be unduly burdened and prevented from engaging in our democratic republic form of government. Freedom of speech and freedom of association will be squelched,” she said. “If the Department of Justice doesn\u2019t like your viewpoint it may target you next.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Would the Department of Justice be investigating the group if they were working in support of abortion? That is the question that needs to be answered.<\/p>\n
