Senator Richard Blumenthal urges Congress to pass 'Journalist Protection Act'
WASHINGTON, DC - APRIL 02: Sen. Richard Blumenthal speaks to reporters in the Senate basement before a weekly policy luncheon on April 2, 2019 in Washington, DC. depicting President Trump carrying out a violent attack on members of the news media as he again called on Congress to make it a federal crime for anyone to attack or threaten a member of the news media doing their job.
Blumenthal’s proposed Journalist Protection Act would make assaulting a member of the working press or making threats with the intent to intimidate journalists from doing their jobs a crime carrying a sentence of three to six years in federal prison. Blumenthal has previously called for such a law, but repeated his call in the wake of the horrific attack video that was reportedly shown at an event for Trump supporters at President Trump’s Doral resort in Miami.
