Free Speech

Every American should have the power to speak, think, and act as they see fit, without hindrance from the government — as long as they’re not violating the rights of others. Yet today we too often see resistance toward a culture of free expression. At AFP-SC, our team will:

• Protect and preserve the First Amendment
• Stop the worst threats to free speech
• Fight cancel culture, disinformation boards, and the government attempts to silence South Carolinians
• Protect citizen privacy
