Bill > HR2724

This bill proposes to amend Section 1507 of Title 18 of the United States Code, which pertains to laws about obstructing justice. Specifically, the bill increases the maximum penalty for picketing or parading near court buildings or the residences of judges, jurors, witnesses, or other court officers from one year to five years in prison. The legislation, named the "Protecting Our Supreme Court Justices Act of 2025," aims to strengthen legal protections for judicial personnel by significantly increasing the potential criminal punishment for those who attempt to intimidate or interfere with court proceedings through demonstrative actions near judicial locations. By quadrupling the potential imprisonment term, the bill seeks to create a stronger deterrent against behaviors that could be perceived as threatening or coercive towards members of the judicial system.
