Abstract | Professor Harry Kalven Jr once called the public forum "the poor man's printing press." A significant feature of the modern regulatory apparatus governing access to the public forum, however, is that it often charges user fees to cover the costs of directing traffic, policing, and administering the public forum. And, as is the case any time the government puts a price on an activity, some people will be too poor to pay. This Comment asks whether the government must waive fees for indigent applicants for use of this "poor man's printing press," and if so, when and why. |

Professor Harry Kalven Jr once called the public forum "the poor man's printing press." A significant feature of the modern regulatory apparatus governing access to the public forum, however, is that it often charges user fees to cover the costs of directing traffic, policing, and administering the public forum. And, as is the case any time the government puts a price on an activity, some people will be too poor to pay. This comment asks whether the government must waive fees for indigent applicants for use of this "poor man's printing press," and if so, when and why. The Supreme Court has held in a series of equal protection and due process cases that indigents cannot be prevented by fees from exercising certain fundamental rights. This comment argues that these cases should govern the issue of public forum fee waivers. |
