We are the anti-SLAPP Taskforce.
We are a taskforce of nonprofit organizations that understand the threat of SLAPPs – many of us have been targets ourselves. We have combined our expertise and collective power to fight back against SLAPPs and protect the free speech of public interest advocates in the United States.
What is a SLAPP?
“Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation” (SLAPPs) are a dangerous legal tactic used by those in power to silence their critics. SLAPPs masquerade as ordinary civil lawsuits, but their true purpose is to retaliate against those who speak truth to power.
Who is vulnerable?
SLAPPs target community leaders, journalists, whistleblowers, civil society advocates, and everyday people who exercise their constitutional rights to speak up about issues of public concern.
