The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression sent Orem officials a letter earlier this month expressing its intent to sue.
OREM — The Orem Library may soon face a lawsuit over alleged censorship and retaliation against employees who have criticized the city's decision to ban gay pride and heritage month book displays.
"We are hopeful you will honor your constitutional obligations to respect and uphold the First Amendment rights of your employees," the letter reads. "Otherwise, Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression will file a lawsuit and seek the full array of remedies including damages and attorney's fees."
The city said in a statement provided to KSL.com that is disagrees with the foundation's claims and that they are based on a misunderstanding of the facts. The city is evaluating the allegations and will "respond at the appropriate time."
