Criminalization of Free Enterprise - Business Civil Liberties Program
There continues to be a growing and dangerous trend by federal and state authorities to violate business civil liberties and criminalize honest business activities when more appropriate administrative and civil remedies are available. WLF aggressively fights for economic rights and commercial free speech, and vigorously opposes wrongful criminal prosecution of free enterprise. WLF activities target government enforcement practices by the U.S. Department of Justice, U.S. Attorneys, U.S. Sentencing Commission, State Attorneys General, and state and federal regulatory agencies.
