A new bill that U.S. Rep. Mike Collins, R-Ga., plans to file will push back against the trend of protestors blocking interstate highways by making it a federal crime to do so.
Collins’ bill would actually be a House companion bill to the Safe Passage on Interstates Act, which U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., filed in the Senate last moth. The bill criminalizes the intentional obstruction of an interstate highway.
