| https://bacon.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=2896 | During National Police Week, Bacon and Gottheimer Introduce Bipartisan “Stop the Doxx Act” to Protect Law Enforcement Officers and their Families | 2026-05-13 | 2026 | 2026-05 | Republican | House | NE | Don Bacon | B001298 | bacon.house.gov | bacon | https://bacon.house.gov/news/documentquery.aspx | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. – To mark National Police Week, U.S. Representative Don Bacon (NE-02) alongside Representatives Josh Gottheimer (NJ-05) and Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (NY-21) introduced a bipartisan federal bill to protect law enforcement officers and their families from doxxing — the publishing of personal information online to threaten, intimidate, or facilitate violence — and the Police Athletic/Activities League (PAL) Reauthorization Act. “Those who protect our communities and uphold the rule of law deserve protection from threats, intimidation, and violence,” said Rep. Bacon. “The Stop the Doxx Act makes clear that weaponizing personal information against law enforcement, prosecutors, judges, or their families is unacceptable and must carry real consequences. With threats and intimidation against these public servants continuing to rise, this legislation is needed now. I look forward to working with Rep. Gottheimer to get this bipartisan legislation signed into law.” “You can’t protect our communities if you can’t protect the people who sacrifice so much for us,” said Rep. Gottheimer. “Doxxing isn’t harmless online behavior. It is targeted intimidation against the people who keep our families safe, and the law has simply not kept up with the threat. We must always get the backs of those who risk their lives every day to protect us, and that means making sure they and their families are safe both on the job and at home.” | 1 | 2026-05-14T06:11:37Z | 2026-05-14T06:12:56Z |
