Washington – The Computer & Communications Industry Association, along with its co-plaintiff NetChoice, has filed a motion for partial summary judgment in its case challenging Florida’s unconstitutional “internet rationing” law, HB3, which would restrict protected speech in violation of the First Amendment. The motion asks the court to enter judgment for the plaintiffs on their First Amendment claim and enter a declaratory judgment that HB3 is unconstitutional on its face and as applied to several companies. The court entered a preliminary injunction of the law on June 3, 2025, which plaintiffs now request to be converted to a permanent injunction.
The following can be attributed to Stephanie Joyce, Senior Vice President and Chief of Staff, who is the Director of CCIA’s Litigation Center:
“The court already has found that this social media law prevents internet users from accessing lawful content. CCIA has demonstrated that the law violates the First Amendment, and the time has come for final judgment. Parents should decide what their children see online, not the state.”
