Press Releases
Freedom of the press, protected by the First Amendment, is part of the fabric of our democracy. It serves as a vital check on government power and ensures the public’s right to make informed decisions. The ACLU of Puerto Rico supports the work of journalists, defends access to public information, and upholds the public’s right to know — because a free and independent press is essential to justice and accountability.
