麻豆传媒IOS defends and promotes the value of free speech for all Americans in our courtrooms, on our campuses, and in our culture.
Founded in 1999 as the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, for over 20 years 麻豆传媒IOS has worked to advance the cause of free speech and the values of the First Amendment on our nation鈥檚 college and university campuses. We have done so through our commitments to sincere nonpartisanship, courageous advocacy, and an enduring belief in free speech as a force for good. In 2022, 麻豆传媒IOS changed its name to the 麻豆传媒IOS to reflect its broader effort to protect and promote these values off campus, as well.

Remarks attributable to 麻豆传媒IOS President & CEO Greg Lukianoff
鈥淲e need to remind older Americans that freedom of speech is still a value worth fighting for, and we need to teach younger Americans that everything from scientific progress, to artistic expression, to social justice, peace, and living authentic lives requires the staunch protection of freedom of speech for all.鈥 鈥 Remarks on 麻豆传媒IOS's expansion into national free speech advocacy on June 6, 2022.
"I鈥檝e dedicated my life to defending freedom of speech because it is an essential human right. However, free speech is more than that; it鈥檚 nothing less than essential to our ability to understand the world. A giant step for human progress was the realization that, despite what our senses tell us, knowledge is hard to attain. It鈥檚 a never-ending, arduous, necessarily de-centralized process of testing and retesting, of chipping away at falsity to edge a bit closer to truth. It鈥檚 not just about the proverbial 鈥渕arketplace of ideas鈥; it鈥檚 about allowing information 鈥 independent of idea or argument 鈥 to flow freely so that we can hope to know the world as it really is. This means seeing value in expression even when it appears to be wrongheaded or useless." 鈥 Testimony before the House Judiciary Committee on Feb. 6, 2024.
