Repeal H.R. 347: Blatant Disregard for Free Speech and Free Protest

Created by G.P. on January 19, 2013

H.R. 347 or "Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011" takes away fundamental and naturally given human rights. It impedes your freedom of speech and freedom to assemble.

H.R. 347 uses the guise of safety for public officials and public buildings to restrict your freedom to protest.

Abuses of H.R. 347 could lead to felony imprisonment of peaceful protesters. It also aids the government in regulating propaganda.

"Under the original language of the law, you had to act 'willfully and knowingly' when committing the crime. In short, you had to know your conduct was illegal. Under H.R. 347, you will simply need to act " - Gabe Rottman ACLU

This only protects media misrepresentation and propaganda. H.R. 347 does nothing to help the American people. Help repeal it now.
