“The measure, Senate Bill 254, would have imposed a requirement on all prisons that fall within the purview of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) to permit accredited members of the news media to tour their facilities and to arrange for interviews with inmates upon their request.

And it prevented prisons from retaliating against inmates who agreed to participate in interviews with journalists.” —
