Anti-Doxxing Act

H 4779, the Anti-Doxxing Act, makes it a crime to intentionally publish personal information (like home addresses or children's schools) of public servants - such as police officers, firefighters, or government employees - with the intent to harass, harm, or disrupt their work. If proven, first offenses are misdemeanors (up to 3 years in prison), while repeat offenses become felonies (up to 20 years). The law specifically protects First Amendment political speech and the publication of public officials' contact information for legitimate lobbying purposes. It directly affects individuals who target public servants with doxxing, not general citizens or non-public figures.
