Sens. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) and Cory Booker (D-N.J.) and Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-N.J.) on Monday unveiled legislation to safeguard the personal information of federal judges and their families that leave them vulnerable to job-related threats.

The bill, The Daniel Anderl Judicial Security and Privacy Act of 2020, was written in response to the fatal attack on U.S. District Court Judge Esther Salas’s New Jersey home in July of this year.
