It’s the middle of the week and FOX 7 Austin photographer Carlos Sanchez is still facing two misdemeanors for simply doing his constitutionally-protected job.

Today is a great day for @TXDPS to drop all charges!

I just wanna say publicly that I'm proud to be in leadership with a President like SPJ President of Society of Professional Journalists, who is actively doing the fearless and necessary work for journalists.

It's easy to write a late press release, but it's another thing to see issues through! 🔥

Y’all, we have to advocate for ourselves and be unapologetically noisy about it, or people are not going to understand all the ways that local journalism is in deep trouble right now. pewresearch.org/journalism/202…

It’s Tuesday— 5 days since Texas DPS charged FOX 7 Austin photographer Carlos Sanchez with two misdemeanors while he was doing his constitutionally protected job.

Today’s a great day for TX DPS to drop those charges!

I applaud SPJ President for being a president of a journalism organization and speaking out to defend the job we do and when we are not treated fairly. Now this is being a true leader. Society of Professional Journalists

Penal code section 407.9 does not require police to first declare an unlawful assembly or failure to disperse to trigger protection for journalists. Only 2 things are necessary to trigger protection for journalists: (1) 1st Amendment protest & (2) police closing area.
