In a powerful declaration during his inaugural speech after taking the oath as the 47th president of the United States, Donald Trump pledged to take decisive action to restore free speech across the nation. The newly sworn-in president announced plans to sign an executive order aimed at halting what he termed “illegal and unconstitutional federal efforts to restrict free expression.”
“After years and years of illegal and unconstitutional federal efforts to restrict free expression, I will also sign an executive order to immediately stop all government censorship and bring back free speech to America,” Trump stated, drawing loud applause from the gathered audience at the Capitol.
The announcement underscores the president’s commitment to prioritizing civil liberties and addressing concerns about free speech restrictions. Trump’s remarks reflect a broader theme of his presidency, aiming to combat censorship and ensure that voices across the political spectrum are heard without interference.
The 2025 inauguration marked the beginning of Trump’s second term in office, and this statement is expected to set the tone for his administration’s focus on protecting First Amendment rights.
