Blocks foreign officials who censor Americans from entering or staying in the U.S.
This bill would make foreign government officials who censor American speech unable to enter the U.S. or be deported if they are already here. It aims to protect the free speech of U.S. citizens by targeting officials who act against them in ways that would violate the First Amendment if done by a U.S. official.
Today, U.S. immigration laws do not specifically list censoring American speech as a reason to deny entry or deport foreign government officials. If this bill becomes law, foreign government officials who censor American speech in the U.S. would be blocked from entering or would be removed from the country.
