  6. With word that US AG Bondi is weaponizing the DOJ against journalists & their sources it's worth noting that @schumer.senate.gov failed to advance the #PRESSact (designed to limit these attacks) for all of 2024. It had passed the HOUSE *unanimously* w/bipartisan support. 👇 bsky.app/profile/medi...

  7. More threats to #PRESSfreedom @schumer.senate.gov any last minute plans for a vote on the #PRESSact? ⏰ 🗓️ “The pressure from Trump and his allies on the media is already growing and will continue to intensify, according to two Trump aides..” (credit to @sarahellison.bsky.social Jeremy Barr)

  8. For those unfamiliar the vital legislation #PRESSact to protect journalists/their sources was introduced into the US Senate *1/22/2024*! @schumer.senate.gov and Durbin failed to prioritize or move it, even in its bipartisan era. Then 11/20/24 Trump blew it up: “REPUBLICANS MUST KILL THIS BILL”

  9. To protect journalists the #PRESSact must become law. It’s up to @schumer.senate.gov if he values a free press - or not. Call your Senators and Schumer’s offices and tell them what you think: www.senate.gov/senators/ We agree with @freedom.press freedom.press/issues/speec...

    Speeches aren’t enough – pass ...

  10. [email protected] we see these as distinct fights to be fought. Orban et al. overtly attack journalists/news orgs as they consolidate power. We must defend the “press” now. Are you familiar w/the #PRESSact ? It must become law this week or further assaults/degradation imperil the press.

  24. The #PRESSact can pass and be signed into law before a new administration. It’s stuck in the US Senate b/c @dickdurbin.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov are dragging their heels. This may be the most consequential Senate item that remains. (FWIW Trump opposes this bill). 👇 bsky.app/profile/medi...
