Government speech or free speech? Can the state purchase art, and then display it in a closet? Or perhaps this is censorship.
Can the Governor remove art because he doesn't agree with his perception of it's message?
So far, yes he can. He said the mural supports labor, and he supports business. So the mural is gone. Where? We don't know, and we are the people of the State of Maine, the people who purchased the art.
The case has gone to court. We shall see.
