The Daily Signal Several times The Justice Department was contacted. It is required to provide details about the number of proabortion attacks it plans to bring to justice under the FACE Act. Although the DOJ refused to disclose this information, Charged 26 people supporting life have been charged with violating the FACE Act since January 1.

The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division enforces the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, which “prohibits threats of force, obstruction and property damage intended to interfere with reproductive health care services.”

Tweet This While the FACE Act is often used to prosecute abortion centers for alleged attacks, it also protects pro-life groups.

“When asked if one of the more typical forms of these attacks—graffiti bearing the phrase ‘If abortions aren’t safe, then neither are you’—could be prosecuted under the FACE Act, he said that such an attack could constitute a FACE Act offense, and that he is hopeful that DOJ could bring charges in many of those cases,” Grenchik added.

He also urged pregnancy resource centers to “take DOJ’s outreach at face value,” calling for these pro-life groups to report attacks to federal law enforcement.

“Although it is reasonable to be concerned that federal charges have not yet been filed against any of the perpetrators of the numerous attacks on pregnancy resource centers this year, that concern carries less weight if pregnancy resource centers are not reporting these attacks to federal law enforcement,” he noted.
