An executive order issued on March 15, 2025 threatens to silence pro-democracy media voices like Voice of America and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. These outlets provide accurate news and information to countries without a free press, fostering democratic ideals globally. Curtailing their independence undermines core American values of free speech and a free press. I urge you to oppose this order and defend the vital role these broadcasters play in promoting liberty around the world. Protecting their editorial freedom is essential for countering disinformation and supporting democracy internationally.
