If they aren’t lying to their constituents can you even call them republicans?

The right to record in public spaces is generally deemed to be a First Amendment right. These public spaces can include parks, sidewalks and even publicly accessible government buildings and offices. Recording police officers in their line of duty is also included under this umbrella . There are unlimitations for interference and “safety,” which police will claim in an effort to limit being recorded.

Key NY Case Law for Town Halls
Mitchell v. Board of Education (1985): This is a leading decision establishing that a blanket ban on tape recorders at open meetings is unreasonable. The court noted that those who choose to speak in a public forum realize their comments can be heard by anyone present and it is of “no consequence” if they are replayed later.
Peloquin v. Arsenault (1994): The court found that the unobtrusive use of cameras cannot be prohibited. A town’s “Recording Policy” was struck down because its sole justification—a “distaste for appearing on public access cable television”—was considered unreasonable.
Csorny v. Shoreham-Wading River Central School District (2003): This ruling reinforced that public reluctance to be recorded is not a valid basis for a prohibition.

I’m really starting to wonder if the only thing they understand is violence.
Unlawful arrests should be resisted.

Every person in those seats need to stand up together & tell these reps who they work for.

Weird that they suddenly care about stuff like that. Hasn’t stopped them ever before.

I believe the First Amendment has something to say about that.
And even if conservative traitors don’t give a shit about that, Americans still do.

I guess we know where Mike Lawler stands on the First Amendment.

Fuck them, record it anyways just use stealth. Do not hold the phone up do not make it obvious, and then post the whole thing on YouTube under multiple accounts. Expose this shit and throw it back in their face. Preserve it also for any future corrections that might happen.
