Call on Congress to repeal FACE Act, and call on President Trump to pardon pro-life Americans convicted thereunder.
This resolution (SR 19) calls on Congress to repeal the federal FACE Act (18 U.S.C. § 248) and urges former President Trump to pardon individuals convicted under it for protesting at abortion facilities. The bill claims the FACE Act has been misapplied against pro-life protesters while failing to address violence against pregnancy resource centers and churches. It specifically cites cases where peaceful protesters faced criminal charges, including jail time and fines, under the law. The resolution seeks to end what it describes as the law's "weaponization" against those exercising free speech and religious liberty.
