Applaud Journalists Taking a Stand for Press Freedom

Across America, leading news organizations are standing up to the Trump administration’s latest assault on the free press.

In a powerful show of unity, outlets including The Washington Post, New York Times, CNN, NPR, Reuters, and The Guardian have refused to sign a new Pentagon policy that would force journalists to pledge not to gather certain information or access key areas without government escorts.

By rejecting this unconstitutional gag order, these journalists are defending every American’s right to know how our government and military operate. Their courage reminds us that democracy depends on truth, transparency, and a free press that cannot be intimidated.

Add your name to applaud the journalists and media organizations refusing to bow to censorship — and to stand with all those defending press freedom and the right to report without fear.
