Colorado District Faces Lawsuit Over Library Book Removals
The Elizabeth School District in Colorado is fundraising to cover legal fees after being sued by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Colorado.
The lawsuit, filed in December, alleges that the district's decision to remove 19 books from school libraries violates federal and state free speech protections.
The district's appeal for financial support is part of a broader effort backed by at least three conservative groups, including one led by former Republican gubernatorial candidate Heidi Ganahl.
- The Elizabeth School District has approximately 2,700 students.
- The district is located southeast of Denver.
