Add your name: Protect your right to protest.

Free Press Action

Friend,

I wanted to make sure you didn’t miss my last email about the anti-protest bills that are sweeping through statehouses across the country. Since George Floyd’s murder, Free Press Action and partners have witnessed over 250 anti-protest proposals aimed at criminalizing our basic rights being pushed throughout the country.

Now, alongside over 100 civil-rights organizations, Free Press Action is calling on the Department of Justice (DoJ) to take action — add your name and help us demand that the DoJ protect your right to protest.

With so many of our basic freedoms under threat, the right to protest is an essential tool in times of crisis and when people feel powerless, voiceless, or unseen. And with the 2022 elections right around the corner, we need to be able to protest and fight for the issues we care so deeply about. From the March on Washington in 1963 to the Black Lives Matter movement today, civil unrest and protest have long been vital to our freedom — and we will fight to protect them.

Dissent and protest are foundational to our democracy. Sign our petition to fight these anti-democratic bills.

It’s an honor to be in this fight alongside you—

Nora, Rose and the rest of the Free Press Action team

P.S. For nearly 20 years, Free Press Action has fought to stop the surveillance of people of color, activists, journalists and religious minorities. Protest is essential to our freedom and democracy — and it’s a right we will continue to protect. Join our fight: Tell the Department of Justice to defend our constitutional right to protest.
