An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Reinstate bans on extremism in the US military

32 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

The Pentagon's inspector general halting efforts to identify and root out extremism within the military ranks is deeply concerning. Allowing extremist ideologies like neo-Nazism and white supremacy to fester unchecked poses a grave threat to national security, military cohesion, and the democratic values this nation was founded upon. Members of the armed forces have been linked to hate groups like the Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, and even the Ku Klux Klan – organizations that promote racism, bigotry, and violence against minority communities. This cannot be tolerated within an institution tasked with defending the United States and upholding its constitution. Urgent action must be taken to reinstate comprehensive efforts to purge extremist elements from the military and crack down on their recruitment and influence. Turning a blind eye only emboldens these dangerous forces that seek to divide and undermine America from within. The Pentagon has a duty to ensure those sworn to protect the nation do not harbor allegiance to abhorrent, anti-American ideologies antithetical to their oath. Failure to address this issue jeopardizes the integrity, honor, and public trust in the U.S. military as an apolitical institution serving all citizens equally without prejudice. A full investigation and decisive measures to root out extremism are imperative to upholding the principles this country was established upon.
