Today wasn’t a show.
No script. No stage.
Just people, in the streets, saying one thing: NO KINGS!

Why Pam Bondi Hates Culver City
Crime? In Culver City? Let’s unpack Bondi's lie & her motive. #PamBondi #CulverCity #FactCheck #TruthMatters #MAGALies #1acommittee

Enough is enough!
Attacks on journalists are attacks on the First Amendment! They want you to be too scared to speak out. Do not give them what they want! Enough is enough! #1acommittee #firstamendment

So glad this t-shirt arrived last night, because today is a perfect day to wear it! Until the Committee has merch, I'll make my own! #FirstAmendment #1acommittee

More Press Pool, less cesspool!
Srsly, if you had the mic & could ask anything without fear of public humiliation or retribution, what would it be??
Now is NOT the time to despair; now is the time to ASSERT YOUR RIGHTS!

Today, we relaunch the Committee for the First Amendment. This Committee was initially created during the McCarthy Era, a dark time when the federal government repressed and persecuted American citizens for their political beliefs. They targeted elected officials, government employees, academics, and artists. They were blacklisted, harassed, silenced, and even imprisoned. The McCarthy Era ended when Americans from across the political spectrum finally came together and stood up for the principles in the Constitution against the forces of repression. Those forces have returned. And it is our turn to stand together in defense of our constitutional rights.

This is not a partisan issue. That is why we urge every American who cares about the First Amendment-the cornerstone of our democracy-and every artist around the globe who looks to the United States as a beacon of freedom to join us. And to those who profit from our work while threatening the livelihoods of everyday working people, bowing to government censorship, and cowering to brute intimidation: We see you and history will not forget. This will not be the last you hear from us.

Jane Fonda along with public figures like Gracie Abrams, Ethan Hawke, and Viola Davis have relaunched a decades old collective called the #1acommittee,
a collective of artists and cultural leaders standing against government repression, industry complicity, and intimidation. Read more below.
