Congressional Republicans Take a Closer Look at the FACE Act | EWTN News Nightly

Описание: On Capitol Hill, there's a move among some Congressional Republicans to take a closer look at how a 30 year old law designed to protect both abortion clinics and pro-life facilities from harassment is being enforced. In 1994, President Bill Clinton signed into law the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances, known as the FACE Act. Since Roe was overturned, Republicans have accused the Biden Administration of weaponizing the FACE Act against pro-lifers, while failing to charge those who have attacked pregnancy care centers and even churches. Weeks ago, while testifying on the Hill, FBI Director Christopher Wray said that's not the case. Now Congressman Chip Roy, wrote the FBI Director demanding an explanation, after the Department of Justice's data shows different data. Congressman Roy and other Republicans also point to the head of the DOJ's Civil Rights division, responsible for enforcing the FACE Act. Capitol Hill Correspondent, Erik Rosales reports.
