The Compact for Censorship

Legal Planet: Environmental Law and Policy 2025-10-08

Summary:

A key First Amendment principle prohibits the government from discriminating on the basis of viewpoint.  This Compact contains a string of viewpoint-based rules. That's a threat to any view the government doesn't like, which definitely includes a belief in climate change or the benefits of renewable energy. Because violation of the agreement triggers draconian sanctions, and the Administration is the judge of what constitutes a violation, the chilling effect will be tremendous.
