The Buckeye Institute Takes D.C. Area ANC Commissioners to Court

The Buckeye Institute filed a new lawsuit on behalf of Eric Flannery, the owner of The Big Board, a neighborhood bar and grill located in our nation’s capital, charging that members of the 6C Advisory Neighborhood Commission conspired to protest the renewal of The Big Board’s liquor license to punish Mr. Flannery because he spoke out against D.C.’s pandemic-era shutdown orders. Flannery v. Eckenwiler was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.
