I think this bill is a good idea, you know? It's important to have consequences for people who try to disrupt the justice system. I'm not totally sure about all the details, but it seems like a step in the right direction. It could really make a difference in keeping our courts safe and functioning properly. Can't wait to see how this plays out! #excited #justice #USA
