What is the immediate impact of the White House's restriction on AP journalists' access to presidential events?

The Associated Press (AP) amended its lawsuit against the Trump administration on Monday, escalating its dispute over White House restrictions on AP journalists' access to presidential events. The White House banned AP journalists after the agency refused to use the term "Gulf of America" instead of "Gulf of Mexico", as per a Trump executive order. This action is considered a violation of the First and Fifth Amendments by the AP.
