Bill > HR140

This bill, the "Protecting Speech from Government Interference Act," amends Title 5 of the United States Code to prohibit federal employees from advocating for or engaging in the censorship of lawful speech while acting in their official capacity. The bill defines "censorship" as influencing the removal, suppression, or restriction of lawful speech on interactive computer services, except for legitimate law enforcement purposes. The bill also requires federal agencies to report to Congress on any censorship actions taken by their employees and mandates annual training for federal employees on the prohibition on censorship. Additionally, the bill clarifies that the bill does not prohibit federal agencies from enforcing federal laws or regulations, establishing or enforcing the terms of federal financial assistance, or using federal accounts to communicate official policy positions to the public.
