Lawmakers argue this is vital to safeguard democracy and protect free expression, especially after recent targeted attacks. Though the Senate’s approval is a major win, the bill still faces hurdles in the Assembly, where it’s stalled without a Democratic co-sponsor. With time running out before the session ends, advocates hope the governor will sign it into law — sending a powerful message that politically motivated violence won’t be tolerated.
