Religious speech on Atlantic City boardwalk no longer a gamble ADF letter prompts city to change ordinance that requires permit to engage in free speech
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Atlantic City will no longer enforce a city ordinance that police used to stop a man from engaging in religious speech on the city’s boardwalk in June. In an Oct. 24 letter to Alliance Defense Fund attorneys representing the man, the Atlantic City Solicitor’s Office agreed the ordinance is “unenforceable in its present form” and that the city “intends to update” it. ADF sent a letter to the city about the ordinance in September. Full news release, quotes, and related media resources available at the following link:
