Stand against injustice:
14 pro-life advocates face 11-year prison sentences for praying and singing outside an abortion facility. 

It’s time for pro-life Americans to stand up and fight against the laws that are oppressing our free speech.

Sign now to demand Speaker Mike Johnson and Chairman Jim Jordan support Congressman Chip Roy’s bill to
repeal the unconstitutional FACE Act
and restore fair laws.



SIGN THE PETITION

Dear John,

Would you believe that we live in a nation where peaceful protest leads to an 11-year prison sentence? 

I’m sorry to say that this IS the harsh reality we're facing today. President Biden’s Department of Justice has increasingly weaponized the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act against pro-life advocates.  

Prosecutions seeking jail time under the Act have skyrocketed, almost entirely targeted at pro-lifers. Meanwhile, outright vandalism and destruction of property to pro-life clinics and centers is punished with a mild slap on the wrist. 

Sign our petition now, urging Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee Jim Jordan to support Congressman Chip Roy’s Repeal of the unconstitutional FACE Act!

The Department of Justice has shown its bias by declaring war on pro-life advocates. 

As I send you this email, 14 pro-life advocates are on the brink of spending the next decade behind bars. Even more alarming, six activists recently found "guilty" under the FACE Act were simply praying and singing at an abortion facility. 

The unfairness is glaring. Pro-life activists face severe penalties. Meanwhile, those attacking pro-life facilities walk away with misdemeanors or plea deals. The FACE Act is being used as a weapon against the pro-life movement.

This is a clear misuse of federal law targeted at the pro-life movement, and I’m not willing to stand by and ignore it.

Now is the time to make our voices heard. Please join me in supporting Congressman Chip Roy’s bill and calling on Speaker Mike Johnson and Committee Chair Jim Jordan to repeal the unconstitutional FACE Act!

The injustice is glaring. Pro-life activists face severe penalties while those attacking pro-life facilities walk away with misdemeanors or plea deals. The FACE Act is being used as a weapon against the pro-life movement.

Congressman Chip Roy explains exactly what’s wrong in an email to our office:

“The FACE Act is being used for completely different purposes than what it was originally sold as. It is now being used to weaponize the power of the DOJ to legally harass pro-life Americans at disproportionate rates.

“We’re seeing pro-life sidewalk counselors targeted while simultaneously failing to protect pregnancy centers and churches from arson, vandalism, and violence – especially in the wake of the Dobbs decision.”

(Note: We’ve requested data on FACE Act prosecutions since October of 2022 but continued to be stonewalled by the DOJ.)”

It's no secret that the FACE Act has been used by the radical pro-abortion Left to target and punish pro-life activists with criminal sentences and jail time. We have a chance now to smash that weapon and stop this abuse of power.

If we don’t fight now, the unlawful prosecutions will keep growing. Pro-life advocates will continue to feel the brunt of this biased law. But the repeal of the FACE Act will empower and protect the movement to help save the lives of mothers and babies by allowing mothers to be given the help and support that they need.

Join us in pushing for change. Support Chip Roy and call on Mike Johnson, Jim Jordan, to repeal the unconstitutional FACE Act!

Yours for Liberty,

Anna Derbyshire and the entire CitizenGO Team
