BREAKING: A Virginia court just dismissed an attempt to use baseless obscenity claims to ban two books from being sold and distributed in bookstores and libraries in state. The First Amendment is clear — disliking the contents of a book doesn’t mean the government can ban it. — PolitiTweet.org

The UN’s scathing review of abortion access in the US should be yet another wake up call for our government. The legacies of colonialism and slavery have a lasting impact on our country — we must combat them head on. https://t.co/OyrDnR79IS — PolitiTweet.org

The court also held that the law the proceedings were based on is unconstitutional, keeping other books, authors, publishers, and distributors safe from similar attempts at censorship. This is a win for Virginia, and a win for our right to read, learn, and think for ourselves. — PolitiTweet.org
