In reply to the discussion: Foreign tourists could be required to disclose 5 years of social media histories under Trump administration plan [View all]GCG
(17 posts)7. It does, but it's complicated.
Yes, the First Amendment generally applies to foreign visitors and non-citizens physically present in the U.S., protecting their free speech and assembly, but these rights aren't absolute and can be complicated by immigration law, meaning actions leading to deportation might differ from those for citizens, creating a complex legal area. While they can protest and speak freely, the government has more power regarding visas and removal, though courts have recognized First Amendment limits on immigration enforcement for speech.
