The voice of X's Global Government Affairs team
Joined November 2010
X is proud to provide financial support to Ms. Lisa Shalet in her claim against Pearson for discrimination and unfair dismissal in retaliation for her lawful expression of her protected philosophical beliefs. Ms. Shalet was forced to resign from her position at Pearson due to her personal posts on X. She used the X platform to voice her personal beliefs supporting Israel and over the spread of radical ideologies and the impact they are having on British values. Pearson deemed these protected philosophical beliefs to be gross misconduct and forced her to resign after being a dutiful employee for 7 years. X, along with the Free Speech Union and James Murray of Doyle Clayton Solicitors, are supporting her claim to vindicate her free speech rights.

X is proud to support Mr. Ruben Sanchez (@rdsanchezjr) in his lawsuit against United Airlines for wrongful termination infringing on his free speech. After a 27-year career, Sanchez was fired by United for his personal beliefs. Upon receiving a false online complaint, United conducted an intrusive review of Mr. Sanchez’s social media activity on X–none of which was related to his work or his outstanding professional record–and terminated him because United did not agree with his religious beliefs on social issues. X remains steadfast in defending free speech globally. We stand by Mr. Sanchez in this fight against an unjust termination aimed at silencing personal expression.

Today, X was granted permission by Irish courts to appeal the Online Safety Code. We believe that freedom of expression and platform safety can and must coexist. Our targeted legal challenge to the Code upholds this principle. X is proud to protect the EU public conversation against regulatory overreach, safeguarding your free speech.

We object to a decision from the Turkish Information and Communication Technologies Authority to block a news organization within Türkiye. Providing a platform committed to defending everyone’s right to free speech is paramount at X, and we believe this decision from the Turkish government is not only unlawful, it hinders millions of Turkish users from news they receive on their country. We look forward to defending these principles through the legal system. X will always defend freedom of speech everywhere we operate.
