Prohibits the Department of State and any entities receiving its grants or contracts from censoring the free speech of U.S. citizens and blocks Department funds from being used for specified censorship activities. It defines key terms (such as “censor,” “free speech,” and “advertising blacklist”), requires the Department to monitor for past misconduct, take corrective action if censorship is found, and promptly notify Congress and affected citizens when Department-funded parties are found to have censored speech.
