Repeal H.R. 347! This secretly signed law is in violation of our 1st Amendments right to assembly and free speech.

Created by A.G. on January 19, 2013

H.R. 347 was passed with little public debate, virtually in secret. It threatens to detain protesters and charge them with a felony AT THE SECRET SERVICE'S DISCRETION if they feel that a protester is impeding government proceedings. It says that protesters within prominent government areas or anywhere near an official protected by the secret service--if they are perceived to be threatening or an impediment to government business--can be charged with a felony.

It is important for Americans to not let their freedom of assembly to be eroded in this manner.

Repeal this law and restore our constitutional right to freedom of speech and assembly!
