Trump needs to do three big things to protect free speech
Fox News
President Trump isn't always against censorship. If he wants to stand up for free speech, he should protect it online, stop suing the press and guard campus speech, too.
But if the president wants to make good on his promises to end censorship, we at the ACLU have a few ideas about where to start. Jenna Leventoff is a senior policy counsel at the ACLU, where she develops and advocates for policies related to protecting free speech and promoting robust access to communications tools.
But anyone who has followed Trump’s career knows that, like many politicians, his promises to eradicate censorship sometimes ring false: this is also the president that ordered federal law enforcement to quell peaceful protests in 2020, and the one that issued the executive order that became the basis for a historic wave of educational censorship.
