Illinois HB3230 protects citizens from government and private company collusion that restricts free speech.
Illinois HB3230, the Freedom from Government and Private Collusion Against Free Speech Act, allows citizens to sue if a state agency or employee collaborates with a private company to restrict their speech. The act provides a cause of action against the agency, employee, and company. If a citizen wins, they can receive triple their legal fees and damages. The act limits restrictions to cases where speech violates the law, falsely defames, constitutes harassment, invades privacy, causes disturbances, or is incompatible with government functions.
