Take Action

  • Tell the Justice Department You Won't Stand for Attacks on Press Freedom

    The Justice Department secretly obtained the phone records of Associated Press reporters in a "massive and unprecedented" violation of journalists' constitutional rights.

    This unprecedented abuse will continue unless we speak out.

  • Senators: Take a Stand for Online Privacy

    Online spying and surveillance have a chilling effect on free speech. They create an environment in which we refrain from posting on Facebook, conducting Web searches, sending emails, writing blog posts or otherwise communicating online for fear that the National Security Agency could come knocking.

    Tell your senators to vote "NO" on any cybersecurity bill that threatens our online privacy.

  • Stop the Koch Brothers

    The bankrupt Tribune Company is selling its daily newspapers, including the Chicago Tribune and the Los Angeles Times. Charles and David Koch  billionaire brothers notorious for their extreme politics — may be the buyers.

  • Bring the Fight for Better Media Home

    Every summer, Free Press activists across the U.S. meet with elected officials to lobby for polices that put people first.

    Want to change the media in America? This is the place to start.

  • Demand an FCC Chair Who Will Fight for the Public

    FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski is stepping down — and we need to seize the moment to push for a chair who won’t cater to corporate interests.

    We can’t afford another FCC chair who cares more about AT&T, Comcast, Verizon and Rupert Murdoch than about you.

  • Free Our Phones

    We need open devices and networks to communicate and innovate — and that means we need the right to modify our own hardware  and truly own our cellphones.

    Congress must introduce and pass legislation that legalizes cellphone unlocking.

     

  • Meet the New CISPA. Same as the Old CISPA.

    If CISPA becomes law, it will be a major blow to our online privacy. CISPA’s passage would have a chilling effect on our freedom to connect online. 

  • Stop the Super PACs

    It’s time for the FCC to enforce its rules requiring real disclosure in political advertising.

  • Don't Stand for It!

    The Federal Communications Commission is still poised to allow more media consolidation. Its proposal would push more women and people of color off the airwaves — and allow Rupert Murdoch to get his hands on even more local media.

  • AT&T: Your World. Blocked.

    AT&T is still blocking FaceTime for users on its unlimited plans. AND it wants to get rid of any rules that protect our freedom to connect.

    What do you think of AT&T? Tell the company today.
