With 24 other orgs, FAC condemns the treatment of journalists covering the protests against ICE raids in LA. Targeting journalists violates the First Amendment. firstamendmentcoalition.org/2025/06/09/coa…

A nationwide group of 27 press rights and civil liberties organizations, sent a letter to DHS Director Kristi Noem expressing alarm at reports that federal officers may have violated journalists’ First Amendment rights during protests in LA. spjla.org/news/first-ame…

In Los Angeles, LAPD HQ and LA County Sheriffs have also violated journalists' rights as they try to report the news. In California, reporters have additional protections. See our letter with 24 other groups: firstamendmentcoalition.org/2025/06/11/coa…

LAPD HQ LA County Sheriffs The letter states: “It is likely that the actions of the LAPD and LASD so far will already subject them, and local taxpayers, to significant [legal] liability. You cannot change what has already happened but you can take measures to not make the problem worse.”

SPJ and its chapters SPJLA, SPJ NorCal Chapter @spj-norcal.bsky.social and SanDiego SPJ have joined letters led by First Amendment Coalition, LA Press Club and Freedom of the Press expressing concern over officers’ treatment of journalists covering protests related to ICE operations in LA.
