A conservative women’s organization has filed a lawsuit against New York Mayor Bill de Blasio for not allowing them to paint an “empowering” street mural on a Manhattan road, while allowing Black Lives Matter to have theirs in front of Trump Tower on 5th Avenue.
The Virginia-based group Women for America First say the Mayor and Department of Transportation are violating their First Amendment right to freedom of expression by being selective of what messages are permitted.
