We are proposing the Broadcast Freedom and Independence Act of 2025 to ensure that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) cannot revoke licenses or take any action against broadcasters based on their viewpoints. This legislation aims to protect free speech and prevent any undue influence or censorship by maintaining the FCC's independence from political pressures or agendas.
