I stand by my commentary and the reasons are laid out in that link. Prohibition of recording is a content-neutral restriction protecting the privacy of individuals.

Even if the Senator were considered "press:"
Quote:Several Court holdings do firmly point to the conclusion that the press clause does not confer on the press the power to compel government to furnish information or otherwise give the press access to information that the public generally does not have.3 Nor, in many respects, is the press entitled to treatment different in kind from the treatment to which any other member of the public may be subjected.4 Generally applicable laws do not offend the First Amendment simply because their enforcement against the press has incidental effects.5 Yet, it does seem clear that, to some extent, the press, because of its role in disseminating news and information, is entitled to deference that others are not entitled to—that its role constitutionally entitles it to governmental sensitivity, to use Justice Stewart’s word.6 What difference such sensitivity might make in deciding cases is difficult to say.

The bolded part itself allows the government to prevent certain information from the press.
