Texas Broadcasters Thank Sen. Cruz for Dedication to First Amendment, Effort to Rein in Big Tech | Senator Ted Cruz

WASHINGTON, D.C. The Texas Association of Broadcasters has sent a letter to U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas), member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, thanking him for his work on the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA), to protect the First Amendment and his efforts to rein in Big Tech.

The Texas Association of Broadcasters wrote:

On behalf of the 1,200+ local Radio and Television stations serving the people of Texas, I am writing to thank you for working with Sens. Kennedy and Klobuchar to craft improvements to S. 673, the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA).

Your dedication to robust community journalism and the First Amendment is immensely appreciated and we are hopeful that, once in law, this measure will meaningfully advance our interest in negotiating effectively with individual Big Tech firms regarding the terms of use for our content.

While much work remains on this front, know that Texas broadcasters are grateful for your leadership and diligence in helping to address our concerns.
