  3. EMAIL CONGRESS: Support the Resolution Against Book Bans

EMAIL CONGRESS: Support the Resolution Against Book Bans

Congress is considering a bicameral Resolution recognizing Banned Books Week. Please send an email to Congress to ask them to support this important free speech Resolution!

The Banned Books Week Congressional Resolution (2022) is an important statement about the right to read from Congress.

It highlights book bans as an alarming threat to freedom of speech in libraries while reaffirming the United States’ commitment to supporting writers’ freedom of expression and urging local governments and schools to respond appropriately to book bans.

The resolution follows a House Subcommittee on Civil Rights and Civil Liberties hearing in April that focused on nationwide efforts to ban books from schools and public libraries

We appreciate Rep. Jamie Raskin (MD) and Sen. Brian Schatz (HI) for introducing this critical Congressional Resolution and for standing up for the First Amendment in Libraries (read the release from the House Oversight Committee announcing the Resolution).
