Declassify RT records so the public can vet administration's claims

Criminalization of routine newsgathering undermines press freedom everywhere
Russia has cracked down extensively on independent reporting within its borders since it invaded Ukraine last month, leading many outlets to cease publishing or pull editorial staff from the country entirely. Still, international and independent news outlets that would face official censorship within Russia are finding ways to distribute uncensored news to avid readers.
Journalists at independent news outlets in Russia have been arrested, raided, censored, and forced to flee in the past week.
One journalist has reportedly already been killed in Ukraine. Others have been shot. And Russia is already cracking down on reporters at home.
