Republican Rep. Chip Roy Reintroduces Bill to Repeal the FACE Act

Republican Representative Chip Roy has reintroduced a bill to repeal the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, with support from 25 Republican cosponsors.
The FACE Act, passed in 1994, has been criticized for disproportionately prosecuting pro-life Americans since its inception.
Roy stated that 97% of FACE Act prosecutions from 1994-2024 were against pro-life individuals, with very few targeting pro-abortion extremists.
Supporters argue that the FACE Act is unconstitutional and should be repealed now that the purpose for its existence has vanished after the Dobbs decision.
