We also submitted a formal comment to the Department of Education in Response to its Request For Information (RFI, Docket ID ED-2023-OPE-0029) related to the effectiveness of the existing Free Inquiry Rule. Our comment defended the existing rule. FIRE discussed FIRE's position on the NPRM and on the RFI with minority staff for the Senate Judiciary Committee and majority staff for the House Education and Workforce Committee. FIRE also had discussions with majority and minority staff for the House Education and Workforce Committee regarding free expression on campus, culminating in FIRE addressing the majority committee members on the same topic. We also contacted Senator Mike Lee's office to talk about his past efforts to enact federal legislation that would seek to alter obscenity law. | Education, Dept of,HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,SENATE | 10000 | 0 | 0 | 2023-04-15T13:14:42-04:00 |
