Censorship Accountability Act

The Censorship Accountability Act creates a legal right for individuals to sue federal employees who violate their First Amendment rights (such as free speech or assembly) while acting in their official capacity. It applies to any federal employee (excluding the President/Vice President) working in executive branch agencies or independent agencies. The bill allows victims to file lawsuits for redress, with courts potentially awarding attorney fees to the winning party. It explicitly prohibits federal employees from suing their own agency or the government for actions taken within their job duties. The law focuses on enabling private legal action against government conduct, not on restricting government speech or censorship.
