No Censors on our Shores Act of 2025

United States119th CongressHR-1071House of Representatives
Updated: Apr 9, 2026

Summary

This legislation proposes to make foreign government officials inadmissible to the United States and deportable if they engage in censorship of speech by U.S. citizens. It specifically targets any alien who, while serving as a foreign government official, was responsible for or directly carried out acts against a United States citizen located in the United States that, if committed by a United States government official, would violate the First Amendment to the Constitution. The bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to establish these new grounds for inadmissibility and deportability. By adding "Censorship" to existing immigration law, the measure aims to prevent foreign officials involved in suppressing speech that would be protected under U.S. constitutional principles from entering or remaining in the country.
