On the recordMarch 8, 2023
Free speech is the cornerstone of a free and thriving society. Unfortunately, recent revelations made in the Twitter files show that free speech under the First Amendment is under attack--even by those within our own Federal Government. Our Founding Fathers fought hard to enshrine the right to free speech in our Constitution. As social media companies and Big Tech corporations collude with rogue Federal officials to censor and deplatform members of our free society--including Members of Congress and other conservative voices--we must continue to do everything we can to fight to protect the First Amendment for everyone. The Protecting Speech for Government Interference Act does exactly that. It is a victory against the modern-day attacks on our freedom, and it is a victory for all freedom-loving citizens of the United States who embrace and accept the right to free speech. I urge my colleagues to vote in favor of the bill.
