WASHINGTON—Students attending Turning Point USA’s Teen Student Action Summit on July 23 spoke at length about the silencing of conservative youth and the importance of free speech in high schools and colleges.

Their comments came after President Donald Trump derided socialism and the growing radical left during an hour-long speech to more than 1,000 high school and college students. The median age of students was 16-years-old.
