Outgoing Missouri Attorney General and freshman senator Eric Schmitt called the First Amendment the “beating heart of the Constitution” as he vowed to Fox News to continue fighting for free speech.
Schmitt uncovered what he called a “vast censorship enterprise” through a May 2022 lawsuit he filed as attorney general for the state of Missouri with Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry. The lawsuit against the Biden administration and various government officials alleges Big Tech-government collusion to censor Americans and cited original MRC Free Speech America research using our exclusive CensorTrack.org database. Schmitt isn’t done championing free speech as he becomes senator, though.
“I firmly believe that the First Amendment is a beating heart of the Constitution that protects fundamental human expression,” Schmitt told Fox News Digital, reiterating what he said on Fox host Sean Hannity’s show. “And in this country, we believe in individual rights, and we believe that people can speak their minds without the government or the regime censoring them or telling them what they can say and can’t say.”
Schmitt is committed to that belief. “So I’m going to take that same fighting spirit for the Senate, wherever it leads,” Schmitt stated.
