Courageous Conservatives PAC to Rep. Pat Curry Ahead of June 6 Hearing: You Can’t Sue Your Way Out of Accountability

Courageous Conservative PAC

The Courageous Conservatives Political Action Committee, dedicated to electing leaders who uphold the values of sovereignty, strength, and principled conservative governance, will argue against a baseless “SLAPP” lawsuit brought by Rep. Pat Curry in court this week. Courageous Conservatives PAC is confident the court will recognize Curry’s attempt to sue critics into silence for what it is: a politically motivated attempt to suppress free speech and silence grassroots conservatives. “This lawsuit isn’t about the law. It’s about power.” said Chris Ekstrom, Chairman of Courageous Conservatives PAC, “Pat Curry is trying to use the courts to muzzle those who dare to hold him accountable and remind him of the promises he made to his constituents. That’s not justice—that’s political retribution.” The Courageous Conservatives PAC has moved to dismiss the suit under the Texas Citizens Participation Act, citing its clear protections of free speech, the right to petition, and freedom of association. The communications in question—texts and Facebook posts—were fully independent and directed solely to the public, urging civic participation on an important issue: the election of the Texas House Speaker. “Our message to Pat Curry’s district and specifically the voters who elected him was straightforward,” Ekstrom added. “’Call Representative Curry and demand he keep his word’. That’s not just legal political messaging; it is how the American Republic was intended to function.” Curry’s lawyers filed a response to the motion last week. “Despite two months to think about it, amazingly, Curry’s lawyers made no attempt to explain why any of their claims have legal merit,” said Jerad Najvar of Chalmers, Adams, Backer & Kaufman LLC. “Our motion explained, point by point, why the PAC’s speech was legal and complied with Texas law. Instead of defending the substance of his frivolous claims, Curry makes the desperate argument that speech on an issue of public concern by a conservative group is somehow ‘commercial speech’ because the PAC paid to distribute it—and therefore not subject to dismissal under the TCPA. Curry’s argument wholly ignores decades of speech law.” “Rep. Curry’s lawsuit is meritless, and frankly, dangerous,” Ekstrom said. “It sets a chilling precedent if public officials can sue private citizens and organizations simply for encouraging civic engagement. We’re not backing down—and neither should any American who believes in the First Amendment.” Courageous Conservatives PAC is also seeking attorney’s fees and sanctions in response to the frivolous and retaliatory suit. “Our commitment to conservative values and political accountability will not be intimidated into silence,” said Ekstrom. “We will continue to defend the rights of the people to speak out and demand integrity from their elected officials—no matter who tries to stop us.” The hearing is scheduled for Friday, June 6, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. The Court is located at 501 Washington Ave., Waco, TX 76701. Interviews with Chris Ekstrom will be available in advance of and following the hearing. About Courageous Conservatives PAC Courageous Conservatives PAC is a grassroots-driven political action committee dedicated to electing principled conservative leaders who will fight for American values, national sovereignty, and an America First agenda. Led by Chairman Chris Ekstrom, the PAC works to ensure that the voices of patriotic Americans are heard — not silenced — locally and nationwide. ### For more information, or to schedule an interview with Chris Ekstrom please contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or dan@danrene.com Contact Details Courageous Conservatives PAC Dan Rene +1 202-329-8359 dan@danrene.com Company Website https://courageouspac.com/

Inspira Technologies Receives $2 Price Target and Buy Rating: Everything You Need to Know

Global Markets News

Litchfield Hills Research has initiated coverage of Inspira Technologies OXY B.H.N. Ltd. (NASDAQ: IINN)* with a Buy rating and a $2 price target, representing potential upside of over 225% from current trading levels of around $0.61 per share. This bullish outlook comes as the medical technology company continues to critical care technology addressing what the analyst describes as "a medical need without good options." The analyst notes that mechanical ventilators are "WWII technology in desperate need of an upgrade" with reports showing that 30% to 50% of ICU patients don't survive. Unlike mechanical ventilation, Inspira's ART500 technology would enable patients to remain awake during treatment while stabilizing oxygen levels without intubation and coma. What distinguishes Inspira from typical early-stage medical device companies is its proven regulatory execution and early commercial success. The company's first generation technology, the INSPIRA ART100 system, received FDA clearance in May 2024 and is already deployed in leading U.S. hospitals. The excitement around this technology reached a new high in April 2025 when the first successful patient treatment was completed at Westchester Medical Center. The commercial momentum seems to be accelerating. Inspira announced it received payment in the "low hundreds of thousands of dollars" from its U.S. distributor for delivered systems, marking the company's first revenues. CEO Dagi Ben-Noon called this "a transformative milestone for Inspira as we establish our presence in the U.S. medical landscape." The company has now initiated global commercial rollout discussions and expects additional deliveries in the second half of 2025. Central to Inspira's technology platform is the AI-powered HYLA blood sensor, which recently achieved 96% accuracy in clinical studies at Sheba Medical Center, one of the world's top hospitals. The system provides continuous monitoring without requiring blood draws, targeting the blood gas analyzer market projected to reach $5.7 billion by 2030. The analyst identifies massive market opportunities, with the global mechanical ventilators market expected to reach $20.69 billion by 2034. Inspira's flagship INSPIRA ART500 system in development aims to disrupt this market by providing respiratory support through direct blood oxygenation rather than forcing air into damaged lungs. Inspira has established strong intellectual property protection with multiple U.S. patents and novel patent claims protecting its core technologies. The company is executing a strategic approach of securing FDA clearance for individual components before integrating them into comprehensive systems. When comparing Inspira to similar medical device companies, the analyst found the stock trades at significant discounts despite having FDA-cleared technology already treating patients. The $2 price target reflects confidence in the company's ability to capitalize on its early commercial success and expand into the massive mechanical ventilation market. The analyst concludes that Inspira may represents a unique opportunity, combining proven FDA-cleared technology with substantial market opportunity and attractive valuation metrics in the high-growth medical device sector. Recent News from Inspira: Inspira Technologies Initiates Global Commercial Rollout of FDA-Cleared ART100 System INSPIRA ART100 System Approved by Israel's Largest Healthcare Provider for Use in Organ Transplant Patients Inspira Achieves above 99% Gas Exchange Efficiency in VORTX™ Technology In-Vivo Animal Testing * Legal Disclaimer & Disclosure: Nothing in this article constitutes financial or investment advice, nor does it represent an offer to buy or sell securities.
