Roundtable: An Enigmatic Court? Examining the Roberts Court as It Begins Year Three

PROFESSOR KMIEC: . . . do you think that one of the signals in Morse is that Justice Alito does not share the same supposition that speech can be limited when it is on the government’s dime?
PROFESSOR SULLIVAN: That is a very good question. Again, I think Justice Alito might find that speech is protected even in certain circumstances where it is a student speaking in a public school, where it is a government employee speaking out against an employer, or a recipient of government funds, but I think it is the content of the speech that will matter more to Justice Alito.
