Lawyers Abbe Lowell and Mark Zaid discussed the Espionage Act in light of recent changes to long-standing policy that limited Justice Department attorneys’ pursuit of records or testimony from journalists, including in cases involving leaks of classified information, at a National Press Club Headliners Cocktails & Conversation event on July 1, 2025. The discussion was moderated by NPC board member Tara Copp.
