We had to have our beloved Koko put to sleep recently, and we went to County Animal Hospital. Koko was almost 15 years old... and was an awesome girl. They were great at County Animal Hospital. I really wanted to thank you guys for being so compassionate during one of the most difficult times of our life.
The idea that lobbying was a legitimate enterprise and protected by the First Amendment slowly gained a legal foundation. Yet itâs striking that as late as 1941, the Supreme Court debated and ruled on a case involving lobbying without invoking the First Amendment and free speech.
