Former state Rep. Bri Buentello, D-Pueblo, who has been blocked from following U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Rifle) on Twitter, has filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Denver claiming First Amendment violations.

As first reported by Colorado Politics, the first-year congresswoman blocked at least a half-dozen individuals from following her @laurenboebert account on Twitter. Many of those blocked are Boebert's constituents in Congressional District 3.

Attorney David Lane, who is representing buentello, said in a statement Sunday that Boebert "apparently believes that the Constitution begins and ends with the Second Amendment. Despite her incessant whining about the alt-right being censored on social media, she has a Twitter account and she routinely blocks anyone critical of her authoritarian views.
