I will always stand by Ohio’s brave men and women in blue.” Senator Moreno’s STOP Act establishes a new federal offense for criminals who barricade themselves to evade arrest by a federal law enforcement officer. Individuals found guilty of barricading can face fines, imprisonment, or both. If the act causes physical harm, involves a deadly weapon, or puts a third party at risk, the penalty increases. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:32:54Z |
