Abstract
Justice David Souter left a remarkable legacy during his time on the U.S. Supreme Court. Nowhere was this more evident than in his sensitivity and solicitude for First Amendment freedoms. This essay examines Justice Souter’s First Amendment legacy primarily through his jurisprudence in three areas: (1) the secondary effects doctrine; (2) public employee free-speech cases; and (3) Establishment Clause opinions.
