Judges do not enforce laws, they apply laws to specific situations, otherwise known as interpreting the law.
“Congress shall make no law” is the text of the first amendment, which is in regard to limiting free expression, not expanding it.
- amanaplanacanal 6y agoWouldn’t Congress have to make a law for judges to step in here, though? I’m not sure what you are suggesting, exactly.
- CyberRabbi 6y agoNo. Congress makes a law that declares the right to free speech to be a civil right. Judges would naturally step in when there is a contested violation of that right, as they currently do in all civil rights disputes .
