YAF students at Clovis Community College, represented by the Foundation for Individual Rights and Education (FIRE), filed the lawsuit Thursday.

"Clovis tried to put up barriers against our ideas because administrators didn't like them," said YAF-Clovis founder Alejandro Flores. "But that's the opposite of what a college should do. Our college should encourage us to discuss and sharpen our ideas, not shut down the conversation."

Below is a rushed transcript from the Todd Starnes Show:

STARNES: We've got an important story to share with you out of California. I believe this is Clovis Community College, where they're cracking down on conservative college kids. And, you know, on this program, nothing gets us going like these attacks on conservative college kids on their campuses. We have with us Kara Zupkus from the Young Americas Foundation. Kara, good to have you with us. What's going on at Clovis?

ZUPKUS: Yes, thanks so much for having me on to talk about this super important story. So today, our students at Clovis Community College, the YAF chapter there, announced that they are suing their school, specifically the administrators and the president of the college for basically discriminating against them, for having conservative ideas. Now, what this kind of brings back to you is the fact that the school removed posters, that the conservative students hung around campus promoting anti-communism ideas. So we're memorializing all the lives lost in communist countries. And the school took them down because someone complained, saying they were offensive. Then we flash forward to another situation where the chapter wanted to hang up pro-life fliers around the time of the Dobbs decision being discussed and brought before the Supreme Court. And the school refused to approve those posters to be hung and instead told them that they could hang the fliers on this so-called free speech kiosk, which is like in the middle of nowhere on campus, not very well traveled and really rundown area. So we're seeing here that conservative students are being treated like second-class citizens. And these students said enough is enough. We're going to sue our administrators because we will not be tolerating this behavior.

STARNES: Good for you guys. And I think that's exactly what needs to happen. Take 'em to court, let the alumni, let the donors know what's going on and maybe head to where it hurts the most, which is the pocketbook. But, Kara, I just I find it very interesting that anybody would be offended by my posters that were pointing out the dangers of communism in this country.

ZUPKUS: Exactly. I mean, the irony here is that really the school is kind of becoming an authoritarian state by not allowing them to hang up these fliers. And what was revealed actually in a public records request done by Young America's Foundation showed that administrators were kind of scheming behind closed doors. One of them wrote in an email that he would, quote, gladly take the fliers down after people complained about them. Other people, administrators, discussed potentially changing the policy, rewriting it to not allow these posters to be hung up. So, what we are seeing is absolutely them discriminating against and scheming behind closed doors to get these students to not be able to just express their free speech rights, which if you can't do that at a college campus, that's just bad, because that's absolutely the cornerstone of higher education, is the open exchange of ideas...
