🇺🇸🇺🇸💥🇧🇷⚖️ — Republican Congresswoman María Elvira Salazar, representing Florida, introduced a bill today in the U.S. Congress that could block the entry of foreign officials accused of violating the freedom of speech of American citizens
⚠️ Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes is explicitly mentioned as a potential target of the measure.
🚫 The bill, titled the "No Censors on our Shores Act," proposes an amendment to the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act. If passed, the legislation would deem foreign officials, including Supreme Court justices, inadmissible or even subject to deportation if accused of violating Americans' First Amendment rights.
🇧🇷 Although Moraes is the only Brazilian Supreme Court justice named, the bill could potentially impact other members of the Brazilian judiciary if similar accusations arise.
🏛 If passed, the bill could have significant diplomatic implications for relations between Brazil and the United States, particularly regarding visits by Brazilian judicial authorities (who frequently travel to the U.S.), as well as law enforcement officials and political leaders, including the presidents of the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate.

⚠️ Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes is explicitly mentioned as a potential target of the measure.
“Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes is the vanguard of an international assault on freedom of speech against American citizens like Elon Musk. Freedom of Speech is a natural and inalienable right which knows no borders. The enforcers of censorship are not welcome in the land of the free, the United States.
We are all aware of the abuse of power by the Supreme Court in Brazil that is targeting Elon Musk and blocking access to X, a privately held American company. But the free speech rights of Americans are also under attack all over the world, and in many nations that we might not expect, With the No Censors on Our Shores Act, foreign government officials will be put on notice: Deny our citizens their First Amendment rights, and this country will deny you entry to America or show you the door."
