Common Ground Events

Meet the speakers for tonight's Common Ground event over some delightful coffee, tea, and cookies. Ask them your questions and talk with other Hamilton friends about the Common Ground event and your thoughts on the 303 Creative vs. Elenis Supreme Court decision, freedom of expression, and LGBTQ+ rights.

Join us for a panel discussion featuring three legal experts as they dissect the 303 Creative v. Elenis Supreme Court case. In a 6-3 ruling this June, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act cannot compel the plaintiff (303 Creative LLC) to design wedding websites for same-sex couples because that would violate her freedom of speech and freedom to exercise religion under the First Amendment. This case examines the intersection of free speech and LGBTQ+ rights.
