Referred to Senate Appropriations Committee. Placed in suspense file.

Creates a buffer zone around places of worship by making it illegal within 100 feet of an entrance to come within 8 feet of someone entering or leaving (or their vehicle) without consent to protest, hand out materials, or speak in a way that harasses, blocks, threatens, or intimidates them. It is meant to protect people’s access to religious services, and violating this law can lead to fines or jail time, with harsher penalties for repeat violations.
