ORDER *
The appellants in this case, the American Civil Liberties Union of Nevada (“ACLU”) and its executive director Gary Peck, bring a facial overbreadth challenge *768 under the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment to Nev.Rev.Stat. § 294A.320, which prohibits certain anonymous political speech. This court raised sua sponte the question whether the appellants have Article III standing to bring this suit. Having considered supplemental briefs on the standing question, we remand for the limited purposes of permitting (1) the appellants to amend their complaint; (2) the parties to supplement the record; and (2) the district court to determine in the first instance whether Article III standing exists in this case.

Arizona, 520 U.S. 43, 64 , 117 S.Ct. 1055 , 137 L.Ed.2d 170 (1997). Plaintiffs need not, however, suffer or risk suffering prosecution under a statute to demonstrate injury from it. • Culinary Workers Union, Local 226 v. Del Papa, 200 F.3d…
