AllSides Media Bias Rating: Center
The Trump administration is proposing non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) for US government workers in an attempt to curb leaks to the press.
The federal personnel office published a draft of the proposed agreement for new and current federal workers with a notice that says media leaks "risk chilling candid interagency feedback, disrupting orderly decision-making, and weakening trust within and among Federal agencies".
