We face an imperative issue. The Broadcaster Freedom Act must pass Congress in order to protect the free speech of Christian and conservative broadcasters. We must speak out now to permanently prohibit the Federal Communications Commission and President Obama from reinstating the so-called Fairness Doctrine, legislation that would force broadcasters to strike an even balance on the issues at their own expense. Exercise your rights as a concerned citizen and call on Congress to vote on this vitally important legislation, the Broadcaster Freedom Act of 2009 (H.R. 226; S. 34). Please read the form below carefully and declare your membership with the ACLJ by adding your name to our Petition of Protest.

A Petition in Protest
Against the So-Called Fairness Doctrine

[[OFFICIALS]]

The so-called Fairness Doctrine is extremely dangerous. It would have a chilling effect on the free speech of conservative and religious media outlets. It contradicts the constitutional principle of free speech and our First Amendment rights. I urge you to use your full influence to keep this legislation from being considered and to stand in full support of Broadcaster Freedom Act of 2009 (H.R. 226; S. 34). The Fairness Doctrine is unconstitutional. It deserves no reference in American landscape, apart from its place in failed history. Please uphold and preserve constitutional free speech for all.
