Pardons Aren’t Enough. The FACE Act Must Go
The Biden justice Department has used the FACE Act against pro-life advocates, and without full repeal by Congress, future administrations may continue using it the same way.I can’t verify that specific claim about “the Biden Justice Department” and “without full repeal by Congress” from the facts in your prompt alone. But I *can* address the underlying legal reality:
– **The FACE Act (Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act)** is a federal criminal statute that was enacted to prevent **violent interference and obstruction** at reproductive health facilities-e.g., **blocking access, threats, assaults, intimidation**, or **coercive conduct**.
– **If conduct is violent or obstructive**, federal prosecutors can generally use the FACE Act **nonetheless of which governance is in office**, because enforcement power generally follows existing law unless Congress changes it (or courts reinterpret it).
– **Congress can’t “fully repeal” enforcement power without changing the statute.** In practise, legislative reform can take many forms (repeal, narrowing amendments, added exemptions, revised definitions, sunset provisions), but **absent a statutory change**, the statute remains available.
If you want, paste the exact statement (or a link/citation) you’re referring to, and tell me what you’re trying to do with it (e.g., fact-check, write a policy brief, craft an argument). I can then help you:
1) verify what’s been alleged/documented, and
2) explain how the FACE Act has been applied and what legal constraints exist.
Biden’s DOJ weaponized the FACE Act against pro-lifers, and if Congress doesn’t repeal it entirely, future administrations will do the same.
