A NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER: The FACE Act is fatally, irreparably flawed and ought to be repealed, as Republicans in Congress are trying to do.
Two years ago, when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland vowed that the Biden Justice Department would “use every tool at our disposal to protect reproductive freedom.”
As tools go, the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act — better known as the FACE Act — is more in the vein of a bulldozer than a screwdriver. The Biden administration, outraged over the 2022 Dobbs decision that overturned Roe, has been especially zealous in using it to ride roughshod over nonviolent pro-life activists.
The latest to suffer the wrath of what is, by far, the single most radical pro-abortion administration in U.S. history are participants in a pair of peaceful protests at abortion facilities in Washington, D.C., and Tennessee.
In the D.C. case, a group of pro-life activists were convicted last year of violating the FACE Act when they used chains, locks and their bodies to blockade the Washington Surgi-Clinic in 2020. During the incident, a nurse stumbled and sprained her ankle. The defendants were recently sentenced to federal prison terms ranging from 10 months to nearly five years.
