Multistate Bar Examination Practice Question

A city enacts an ordinance that bans the display of any banners containing political messages on public sidewalks. A local environmental group challenges the ordinance, claiming it violates their First Amendment rights. How is the ordinance most likely to be evaluated under the First Amendment?

  • The ordinance is subject to strict scrutiny and will be upheld if it serves a compelling government interest and is narrowly tailored.

  • The ordinance is subject to rational basis review and will be upheld if it is rationally related to a legitimate government interest.

  • The ordinance is subject to intermediate scrutiny and will be upheld if it substantially advances an important government interest.

  • The ordinance is unconstitutional because it restricts political speech.
