Pennsylvania lawmaker proposes bill to criminalize “masked intimidation”

(WHTM)– A Pennsylvania lawmaker will soon propose a bill to make “masked intimidation” illegal.

Pennsylvania Senator David Argall (R-29) said he is introducing legislation that would make masked individuals guilty if they intentionally harass, intimidate, or threaten any person or group.

Senator Argall created the bill in response to masked attacks against individuals from different walks of life.

He specifically referenced anti-Semitic incidents in cities and college campuses across Pennsylvania and the incident last summer when a masked neo-Nazi group marched through Harrisburg with flags featuring swastikas.

Argall said the legislation is being carefully crafted to ensure perpetrators’ accountability while also allowing others to continue to wear masks for health, safety, and religious reasons.
