Lawmakers on Capitol Hill Push to Repeal the FACE Act | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Several lawmakers on Capitol Hill are pushing to repeal the FACE Act. Last week in the nation’s capital 7 pro-lifers were sentenced to prison for charges related to the FACE Act. Specifically, they were put in jail for their attempted rescue mission at an abortion business in 2020. Republican Representative from Texas, Chip Roy, joins to share his reaction to some of these recent sentences passed down under the FACE Act. Roy says the Biden Administration has weaponized the FACE Act, he explains how so. Roy referenced the lack of protection for houses of worship under the FACE Act and discusses if there is a double standard. He tells us about the legislation he introduced and how it would combat the way in which the FACE Act is being leveraged right now. He fills us in on what support he has for his legislation and what the chances are of passing it. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
