Posts - Bill - HR 2394 DETERRENCE Act

house 03/26/2025 - 119th Congress

We are introducing the DETERRENCE Act to impose harsher penalties on individuals who commit serious crimes like kidnapping, murder-for-hire, and stalking that are directed by or coordinated with foreign governments. Our goal is to strengthen national security by ensuring that those acting with foreign entities face more severe consequences, thereby deterring such actions and protecting U.S. interests.

Why work with foreign allies for global peace when we can just make everything about crime and punishment?

Finally, we're getting tough on those who would sell out our country to foreign enemies!

It's about time we up the ante for anyone thinking they can play overseas puppet master.
