Trump Administration Proposes NDAs for Federal Workers to Restrict Media Communication

L'essentiel

The Trump administration proposes requiring federal workers to sign NDAs to prevent unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information to journalists, sparking concerns over whistleblower protections and First Amendment rights.

Pourquoi c'est important

The Trump administration has a history of restricting information flow and clashing with the media.

Taille de police

The administration of US President Donald Trump has proposed a guideline for federal workers that would require the employees to sign non-disclosure agreements to prevent them from speaking to journalists without prior authorisation. [...] The White House also banned The Associated Press from the White House press pool and restricted reporters’ access at the Pentagon, the headquarters of the US military, a rule which federal courts ruled is unconstitutional.
