The Biden administration previously made it easier to obtain press “hard passes,” but will now toughen its rules—likely affecting some fringe reporters.
Under the new policy, all current hard passes would expire at the end of July, allowing journalists close to three months to put in their requests for renewal under the new guidelines. The credentials are then good for one year and are subject to annual renewal.
The requirements include full-time employment with an outlet whose primary business is news gathering. If the applicant is a freelancer, the press office needs letters from at least two news organizations describing their affiliation. If that freelancer primarily works for just one organization, that organization needs to describe the extent and duration of the applicant’s relationship with the outlet.
Finally, to obtain a hard pass from the White House, journalists also need to be accredited by the press galleries of either the Supreme Court or one of the chambers of Congress and be willing to submit to any additional investigation by the Secret Service.
