Garry claims the bill does not violate free speech, according to a Saturday post on her official Facebook page. T. Barton Carter, a communication and law professor at Boston University, said Garry's bill is "clearly a violation of the First Amendment." The text of the bill is too broad, he said, and attempts to clamp down on political speech, which is protected under the First Amendment. Craney called Garry's bill a "disgusting and really awful piece of legislation." Garry said in the same Facebook post on Saturday that the Fiscal Alliance "makes a business out of lying to further their political agenda!!"
