Press freedom is not a privilege granted by the government — it’s a fundamental right. National Press Club stands with Committee to Protect Journalists & Society of Professional Journalists in opposing this dangerous precedent. We're proud to sign onto this statement demanding the The Associated Press’s access be restored cpj.org/2025/02/cpj-sp…

🚨 The largest disruption in Voice of America’s history is unfolding right now. Journalists placed on indefinite leave. A newsroom basically gutted overnight. This isn’t just about job cuts — it’s about the future of independent journalism. National Press Club and Press Freedom Center statement:

A Journalist. A Marine. A Son. We must use every available opportunity to bring Austin Tice home. Putin's promise to ask Assad for answers cannot be ignored. Today's call between Presidents Trump and Putin is a moment for real action. #FreeAustinTice National Press Club Press Freedom Center

Silencing an entire newsroom overnight is an attack on press freedom — plain and simple. Voice of America journalists were taken off the air for doing their jobs. Now they’re standing up. The National Press Club stands shoulder to shoulder with them. National Press Club Press Freedom Center

Journalists risk everything to bring truth to light. Pope Leo XIV’s call is a powerful reminder: this is a global fight for press freedom. Austin Tice has been missing 12 years. 10 VOA, RFE/RL & RFA journalists remain imprisoned. The fight isn’t over. apnews.com/article/pope-l…

Journalism took the Preakness today. Not the first time it’s led from the front — and certainly not the last. A good day for fast horses and a free press. 🥇🙌

This Memorial Day, we reflect on those who gave their lives to defend American values, including freedom of the press. The Pentagon’s new policy restricts journalists’ ability to do their jobs & limits the public’s right to know. National Press Club statement: press.org/newsroom/natio…

Today we remember the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. At National Press Club, where the First Amendment is our guiding light, we know freedom isn’t free. Our right to report, speak & gather exists because of their sacrifice. We honor them with gratitude.
