Standing-to-challenge-government-policy

QUESTION PRESENTED The Attorney General of the United States has weaponized the vast law enforcement resources of the federal government to target parents, including Petitioners, who publicly and vehemently object to certain policies being forced upon their children in various school districts across the country, specifically including school districts located in Loudoun County, Virginia, and Saline, Michigan. The Attorney General has pejoratively designated these parents as “threats” and “domestic terrorists,” deeming them worthy of investigation and surveillance by the federal government. 1. Do Petitioners, who were the intended targets of the challenged policy directive, have standing to advance this ripe legal challenge when they have alleged a chilling effect on their right to freedom of speech and reputational harm caused by the directive?
