The Smithsonian may not have been the only federal institution to ban pro-life apparel during last month’s March for Life in Washington.
The latest complaint alleges that National Archives security guards confronted separate groups of visitors from different states wearing pro-life swag in at least three instances.
One guard “specifically instructed Plaintiff L.R. that she could not be wearing anything prolife and that she must cover her shirt and not unzip it until she had left the National Archives.” She did so for fear that she would be thrown out if she refused. As she passed through a metal detector, the guards noticed her black sweatshirt with the message “I Am the Post-Roe Generation: Law Students for Life,” and told her, “You have to take your shirt off. Your shirt will incite others” and “cause a disturbance,” the lawsuit said.
In the third encounter, Terrie Kallal and her unnamed granddaughter were told at the security entrance that they must cover up their “offensive” shirts, which had the messages “March 4 Life 2014: Saint Cecilia’s Youth Group, Glen Carbon, IL,” and “pro-life generation.” She said some of the students responded that they “would rather leave than give up their right to free speech,” and that the entire group exited the building.
