Many businesses today, as corporate entities other than sole proprietorships, voice their political and social views in various ways.  Chick-fil-A is an example of a business that voiced prominent views on the issue of gay rights, a perception it since has tried to reverse. This news article briefly summarizes the Chick-fil-A controversy:  https://www.courier-journal.com/story/money/companies/2019/03/26/chickfila-ceo-gay-marriage-comments-still-impact-reputation-lgbtq-community/3276142002/.

For this Forum, consider the U.S. Supreme Court case in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, 558 U.S. 310 (2010). (Your written Assignment this week is to prepare a case brief of this case. A copy of the case opinion is attached to the Week 3 Assignment.) Citizens United was a nonprofit corporation that wanted to publish a video about Hillary Clinton, a political opinion piece.

  • Why was Citizens United’s video publication an issue?
  • What did the Supreme Court decide? Focus on the Court’s definition of “person” and the First Amendment arguments.  What are they?
  • Do you agree that a business entity other than a sole proprietorship have the same First Amendment rights as individual humans? Why or why not?

**Discuss the case and these questions and other views you have to offer.**

Additional Chick-fil-A reference:    Severson, K. (2012, July 25). Chick-fil-A thrust back into the spotlight on gay rights. New York Times. Retrieved from https://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/26/us/gay-rights-uproar-over-chick-fil-a-widens.html
