First Amendment

News outlets are challenging Tennessee's restrictions on press access to executions.

Represented by RCFP attorneys, a media coalition argues that Tennessee’s restrictions on press access to executions are unconstitutional.

RCFP is supporting the Stanford Daily’s First Amendment lawsuit against the Trump administration.

The school’s efforts to silence the newspaper are “ill-advised” and "unconstitutional."

The White House’s expulsion of the AP violated the First Amendment, RCFP argues in a friend-of-the-court brief.

In a letter to DHS, RCFP highlights several incidents in which federal agents have arrested and used force against journalists.

The Georgia Court of Appeals should rule that the press has a constitutional right to access execution proceedings.

"The First Amendment means that the government doesn’t get to decide what information a journalist can or can’t publish.”

Crediting the government’s theory in Rümeysa Öztürk's case would chill an enormous amount of reporting in the public interest.

The Supreme Court should reverse a Third Circuit ruling that poses dangers to the First Amendment rights of the press.
