Plain-English Summary

The proposal would make it a federal crime to publicly share personal information like home addresses, phone numbers, or family details about police officers, prosecutors, and judges with the intent to harass, threaten, or endanger them. This would protect these officials from coordinated online attacks that could put them and their families at risk. The bill is currently under review by the House Judiciary Committee.
