Park Volunteer Fired After Refusing To Remove Trump Bumper Sticker

Formhals v. Washington State Parks and Recreational Commission
Park Volunteer Fired After Refusing To Remove Trump Bumper Sticker
STATUS:
In Court

Gary Formhals, a former U.S. Navy Chief, has been a volunteer and part-time employee with the Washington State Park system for over 10 years. He was "fired" for refusing to remove Trump bumper stickers from his personal vehicle after a park visitor voiced her outrage about Gary's bumper stickers, which she described as "insurrectionalist [sic]." He was forced out of his job because he refused to relinquish his free speech rights. We filed a lawsuit to defend our client's First Amendment rights.
