    Judicial Security

    Protecting our courthouses and providing our judges with support are paramount when lives are at stake.

    Advocate Now

    Help us urge Congress to pass legislation similar to last Congress’s Daniel Anderl Judicial Security and Privacy Act to protect the lives and safety of members of the Federal Judiciary and their families.

    Act - Now

    Overview

    The Daniel Anderl Judicial Security and Privacy Act, named after the son of District Court Judge Esther Salas, who was tragically murdered last summer by a disgruntled attorney who attacked her family at their home in New Jersey, would protect the confidentiality of judges' personally identifiable information and prohibit the dissemination of such information over the internet except under limited circumstances.
