Shurtleff v. City of Boston

Shurtleff v. City of Boston, 596 U.S. 243 (2022), was a United States Supreme Court case related to the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. The case concerned the City of Boston's program that allowed groups to have their flags flown outside Boston City Hall. In a unanimous 9–0 decision, the Court ruled that the city violated a Christian group's free speech rights when it denied their request to raise a Christian flag over City Hall.
This decision received praise from religious liberty organizations as well as the Biden Administration and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).
