The Federal Hate Crimes Bill: Federalizing Criminal Law While Threatening Civil Liberties
New York Times: A Gag on Free Speech
"The Bush administration is trampling on the First Amendment and well-established criminal law by trying to use a subpoena to force the American Civil Liberties Union to hand over a classified document in its possession," write the editors of the New York Times. "The dispute is shrouded in secrecy, and very little has been made public about the document, but we do not need to know what's in it to know what's at stake: if the government prevails, it will have engaged in prior restraint - almost always a serious infringement on free speech - and it could start using subpoenas to block reporting on matters of vital public concern."
