What it does
The FREE SPEECH Act of 2025 would prohibit the Federal Communications Commission from requiring any entity it regulates—such as broadcasters, telecommunications providers, or internet service providers—to align their speech with the political ideology of any presidential administration. This prohibition applies to all FCC actions, including rules, orders, merger approvals, or other regulatory conditions. The bill aims to protect editorial independence by preventing federal regulators from compelling regulated entities to adopt or promote specific political viewpoints.
