Department of Justice (DOJ) data reveals how the Biden administration has used the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act to specifically target pro-life activists, despite the statute’s original intent of protecting abortion clinics as well as pro-life pregnancy centers and houses of worship.
The FACE Act, which former President Bill Clinton signed into law in 1994, prohibits “violent, threatening, damaging, and obstructive conduct intended to injure, intimidate, or interfere with the right to seek, obtain or provide reproductive health services.” Between 1994 to 2024, there have been approximately 211 FACE Act cases — 205 of those cases have been brought against pro-life activists, while only six have been brought against pro-abortion activists, the Daily Caller reported, citing data provided by Rep. Chip Roy’s (R-TX) office.
Ultimately, the data shows that 97 percent of all FACE Act cases have been against pro-life activists since the law’s passage, according to the report.
