Republicans Are Trying to Get Rid of Law That Protects Abortion Clinics From Violence
"Anti-abortion lawmakers and lawyers are targeting a law used to keep abortion clinics safe after a number of high-profile convictions of anti-abortion activists. Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) introduced H.R. 5577 on Tuesday, along with 25 other Republicans, to repeal the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE Act). Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT)—one of the few senators to support Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.)’s months-long anti-abortion crusade in the Senate—says he plans to introduce companion legislation in the upper chamber.
The FACE Act makes it illegal to use “force, obstruction and property damage intended to interfere with reproductive health care services,” according to the Department of Justice. The law was passed in 1994 after clinics had been facing invasions, trespassing, and vandalism, as well as bomb threats and actual bombings, for decades. In 1994 alone, four people were murdered, including two abortion providers, a clinic volunteer, and two clinic receptionists. (There have also been at least 11 murders against abortion providers since 1977, according to the National Abortion Federation.)"
