SACRAMENTO, California, Jan. 29 -- The Pacific Legal Foundation issued the following news release on Jan. 28, 2021:
A fundraising worker filed a lawsuit today challenging a Connecticut law that forces paid solicitors to tell the state in advance when they plan to talk to a potential donor and exactly what they'll say, and report the name of everyone who gives--even just a $1 gift--to the government. Going off script could lead to a $5,000 fine and one year in prison.
