A bipartisan group of U.S. representatives has introduced a new bill aimed at safeguarding Americans workers’ right to free speech against foreign governments, in particular the Chinese regime.
The proposed legislation, named the Preventing Foreign CENSORSHIP in America Act, would ban companies from firing or retaliating against employees who speak up about sensitive topics that countries like China seek to censor, according to a press release from the bill co-sponsor Rep. Jim Banks (R-Ind.).
