Enacted in 1994, the FACE Act makes it illegal to block access to reproductive health care facilities, including abortion clinics. During the Biden administration, the FACE Act was weaponized against pro-life Americans, while pro-life centers and churches were left unprotected, as reported at Legal Insurrection. The Biden DOJ arrested and convicted 23 individuals under the FACE Act for praying and demonstrating outside abortion facilities. The weaponization of the FACE Act against pro-lifers officially came to an end as soon as Trump took office. In addition to civil penalities, violators of the FACE Act can face criminal punishments including fines or imprisonment.
