Society of Professional Journalists Sigma Delta Chi urges rejection, warning free speech could be stifled even if the bill avoids abuse. The bill would also raise penalties for disclosures by current or former officers with access to secrets while CIA Director Casey argues urgency to counter anti intelligence efforts.
