'''Government speech''' is “speech” -- expressive activity that is “intended to be communicative” -- which is spoken by the government.

Examples include:

*accepting monuments for placement in a city park, which “constitute[d] government speech” because the monuments were “meant to convey and have the effect of conveying a government message.” Summum, 555 U. S., at 472;

*"We must decide whether that rejection [of a Confederate flag license plate] violated the Constitution’s free speech guarantees. See Amdts. 1, 14. We conclude that it did not." ''Walker v. Tex. Div., Sons of Confederate Veterans, Inc.'', 576 U.S. 200, 203-04 (2015)

Stated another way, the purposeful communication of the speaker’s own message generally qualifies as “speech.” ''Shurtleff v. City of Bos.'', 596 U.S. 243, 267 (2022).
