Establish buffer zones around houses of worship

Brad Knott introduced the Right to Worship Act, which would create a 100-foot buffer zone around houses of worship during services. It would make it unlawful to knowingly disrupt services or impede people from attending, and would set civil fines. Individuals, the U.S. attorney general, and state attorneys general could sue alleged violators.

Context: The bill was introduced; the passage does not establish that it has become law.
