Foreign government officials could be denied entry to the United States or removed from it for censoring a U.S. citizen inside the country. The rule uses the First Amendment as the test for what counts as censorship.
Modern Action explains what the legislation does, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
No Censors on our Shores Act of 2025 is a House bill waiting for floor action. The latest recorded action: Placed on the Union Calendar, Calendar No. 523.
Latest action on H.R. 1071: Placed on the Union Calendar, Calendar No. 523.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects foreign government officials who want to enter or stay in the United States. It also affects immigration officers and courts that would have to apply the new rule. U.S. citizens are not penalized by the bill, but the bill is aimed at acts that target their speech while they are inside the United States.
Why this matters: This bill matters because it would tie U.S. immigration status to censorship of Americans’ speech inside the United States. A foreign official’s past or current actions could affect whether that person may enter or stay here. The bill could deter foreign governments from pressuring Americans over speech. But it may also create hard judgment calls, because it relies on a First Amendment test instead of a list of specific acts.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
