Anti-protest bills are obvious anti-democratic. Yet Republican run states have past bills prohibiting protest in 1 in 3 USA states in the last 4 years. The American Legislative Exchange Council helped write laws criminalizing protest against pipelines, gas terminals and other projects in 24 states in the USA. This is theoretically to protect critical infrastructure.
This is in response to successes in creating laws to keep fossil fuel companies accountable for the damage they do.
For the time being, laws in the USA have swung away from climate protection. We need the US central government to take up this cause, and reverse this issue.
