San Antonio Animal Care Services to stop deleting critical socialmedia comments
Sep 24, 2024
San Antonio's embattled Animal Care Services department will no longer delete negative comments from its social media pages, the City Attorney's Office said this week. The decision comes a week after free-speech watchdog the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) sent a letter to ACS accused it of violating the First Amendment. As a government entity, the city department is barred from deleting critical comments from its social media forums, FIRE argued.
