Reggie Garcia on the First Amendment Foundation's Barbara Peterson:
Reginald Garcia, a Tallahassee lawyer and lobbyist of 35 years, says Petersen’s authority on First Amendment rights remains unmatched.
“Barbara built that credibility one year at a time, one session at a time, one issue at a time to the point where certain legislators would always ask, and to an extent still this happens, what the First Amendment Foundation’s opinion of certain legislation is,” Garcia says. “All these big brown statute books … her fingerprints are probably all over those.”
