The SACRED Act amends federal criminal law to prohibit harassment, intimidation, and obstruction of persons exercising religious freedom at places of worship within 100 feet of such locations. The bill establishes criminal penalties ranging from fines and up to one year imprisonment for first offenses to up to three years for subsequent offenses, with enhanced penalties if bodily injury or death results. It also creates civil remedies allowing affected individuals and religious entities to sue for injunctive relief and damages, and authorizes the U.S. Attorney General and state attorneys general to bring civil actions. The bill includes a carve-out protecting peaceful picketing and other First Amendment-protected expressive conduct outside places of worship.
