Jane Fonda headlined Rise Up, Sing Out: A Concert for the First Amendment on June 14, 2026, a 90-minute live event organized by the Committee for the First Amendment featuring Bette Midler, Patti Smith, Julia Roberts, Rufus Wainwright, Lily Gladstone and Robert De Niro. Bette Midler performed a modified Woody Guthrie song, Rufus Wainwright sang "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," Julia Roberts honored Renee Good, and Lily Gladstone opened with remarks in Blackfeet while noting Lenape history. Organizers framed the program around protecting the First Amendment and building civic solidarity ahead of America’s 250th anniversary, and the full program remains available to watch via the event stream.
