This UC Berkeley student politician was kicked out of her "Political Party" due to not accepting a clause in a certain bill brought before the student electorate.
This is a freedom of assembly issue, not a freedom of speech issue. Freedom of assembly means that an organised group (such as a political party) is free to expel undesirable members, who in turn are free to form their own organisation, But it wasn't a political party, instead the student body Senate. Which should have VARIOUS political parties, right? UC Berkeley is publicly funded and the student body government should be under the rules for freedom of speech.
Also it looks like this was the point of contention. I can't see it being even worth spending the time voting on or quarreling about.
Two weeks ago, the Queer Alliance Resource Center (QARC) reportedly asked the student body to condemn the Trump Administration’s “proposed definition of sex under Title IX” defining individuals as being male or female as fixed from birth. The student government bills argued the definition is “trans-exclusive,” rolling back the Obama Administration’s added protections for individuals who identify as transgender from “harassment, denial of access to the student’s preferred restroom, and requirements regarding medical documentation.”
