Congress should consider stripping Attorney General Merrick Garland of his salary if he does not enforce federal laws prohibiting protests outside the homes of Supreme Court justices, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) suggested in a new interview.

Under 18 U.S.C. § 1507, protesting outside the homes of justices, among other areas, “with the intent of interfering with, obstructing, or impeding the administration of justice, or with the intent of influencing any judge, juror, witness, or court officer, in the discharge of his duty” is prohibited. Violators are subject to fine or imprisonment.

But despite clear violations of the statute last year over the reversal of Roe v. Wade, the DOJ never enforced the law against violators. The agency has not explained why it did not prosecute offenders.
