Summary

The Student Journalist Press Freedom Restoration Act would guarantee that student‑run newspapers, broadcasts and online media at public and state‑funded schools and colleges can publish without censorship, except for illegal or harmful content. It also bars schools from disciplining student journalists or retaliating against media advisers who defend those rights. Schools must adopt written policies and students may go to court for injunctive relief if the law is violated.
