If honest journalism is not protected then who will report the corruption???

Oh ya that’s right, independent “conspiracy theorist”

This bill should pass, right???

Do you want total control of the news???

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) tweeted her announcement of three new bills on Tuesday, which include two resolutions to drop espionage charges against NSA leaker Edward Snowden and WikiLeaks owner Julian Assange, and a third bill proposing reforms to the Espionage Act.

“Brave whistleblowers exposing lies & illegal actions in our government must be protected,” Gabbard tweeted. “Join me and urge Congress: Pass my bipartisan legislation (HRes1162, HRes1175, HR8452) calling for charges against @snowden & Assange to be dropped & to reform the Espionage Act.#PassItOn.”

"Dropping charges" doesn't really mean anything, normally, as charges can easily be restored later on with about no formality. I don't think those bills are really meaningful. Tulsi is also not running for reelection so these bills have about no chance of becoming law before she's out of Congress.
