Message from Congressman Scott Fitzgerald

Good morning, everyone, and happy Tuesday!

It was an honor to join Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan as part of a bipartisan Congressional delegation to Europe to address a critical issue: censorship and free speech across the globe.

The European Union’s Digital Services Act and the UK's Online Safety Act are prime examples of digital censorship laws that threaten freedom of speech and have significant negative impacts on companies here in the United States.

To learn more about the foreign censorship threat, read the House Judiciary Committee Republicans' interim staff report: "The Foreign Censorship Threat: How the European Union’s Digital Services Act Compels Global Censorship and Infringes on American Free Speech."

Keep reading on to hear additional updates about what's been happening in Washington and Wisconsin. I hope you have a great week.

Fitzgerald Talks U.S. Opposition to EU Tech Censorship with Reps. Jordan & Kiley on Brussels Signal

Joined the Brussels Signal with Congressman Jim Jordan and Congressman Kevin Kiley to discuss our concerns with the EU’s Digital Services Act and the global implications it has on freedom of speech.

Fitzgerald Discusses the UK's "Online Safety Act" and Its Effect on Free Speech and U.S. Companies

The UK calls it the "Online Safety Act." Translation: a censorship law that attacks free speech and negatively impacts U.S. companies.

Meeting at NATO HQ in Brussels

Great meeting at NATO HQ in Brussels with U.S. Ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker. Ambassador Whitaker made it clear that every dollar the U.S. spends on NATO must deliver security, stability, and strength for our country, and I couldn't agree more. Thanks to President Trump's leadership, our NATO allies agreed to increase their defense spending from 2% to 5% of GDP. This is a huge win for American taxpayers, as our allies must pay their fair share.
