Can’t the commissioner be sued for illegal denial of free speech ?

Oregon may foolishly have given him authority to levy fines but can’t give him authority to deny speech.

[[Oregon may foolishly have given him authority to levy fines]]

Levy fines but based on what? Feelings? Subjective interpretations of law? If he has unfettered ability to levy fines for any reason, then he can fine every Christian I n the state just for being a Christian, or fine heterosexuals for being married to the opposite sex, or fine conservatives for not being liberal

By what authority is he given the ‘right’ to violate the constitution by levying a fine on someone who exercises their constitutionally protected RIGHT to free speech?
