PRESS Act

To: Sen. Smith, Sen. Klobuchar

From: A constituent in Minneapolis, MN

December 3

The PRESS Act seeks to safeguard the crucial role of journalism in a democratic society by prohibiting the federal government from compelling reporters to reveal confidential sources or other newsgathering records. This legislation upholds the fundamental principle of press freedom enshrined in the First Amendment. Supporting the PRESS Act ensures that journalists can carry out their vital watchdog function without fear of retaliation or intimidation, fostering an informed citizenry and holding those in power accountable. As an advocate for a robust and independent press, I strongly urge you to move this bill forward to protect the free flow of information and transparency in our nation.
