"Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech..."

With these simple words, America's Founding Fathers sought to create a land in which citizens could speak and write without fear of reprisal.

Now we invite YOU to advance the cause of free speech.

We are encouraging schools, organizations, and communities across the country to commemorate the third annual National Freedom of Speech Week (NFSW) from October 18 to 24, 2010.
