Press Freedom at Stake: AP vs. Trump Administration
The U.S. Court of Appeals upheld restrictions imposed by the Trump administration on the Associated Press's White House access following a naming dispute over the Gulf of Mexico. The AP argues this violates First Amendment rights. The case may head to the Supreme Court for further review.

A U.S. appeals court on Tuesday upheld restrictions imposed by the Trump administration limiting the Associated Press's access to the White House.
This decision stems from the AP's refusal to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, as favored by President Trump. The AP claims the restrictions violate First Amendment rights.
The AP intends to focus on free speech rights as the case progresses, potentially to the Supreme Court, challenging the administration's media access control.
