#ParamilitaryActivity

An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Pass the Preventing Private Paramilitary Activity Act (S.3589/H.R.6981)!

817 so far! Help us get to 1,000 signers!

All fifty states currently prohibit people who are armed and acting as part of a private military organization like the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers from actions like intimidating state and local officials, interfering with government proceedings, pretending to be law enforcement, and infringing on the constitutional rights of their fellow citizens. Unfortunately these bans are often outdated, under-enforced or ignored – and fail to account for public safety threats with national agendas and national activities.  Marking the third anniversary of the coup attempt on January 6th, Senator Ed Markey and Rep. Jamie Raskin have proposed the Preventing Private Paramilitary Activity Act (S.3589/H.R.6981) to address this gap in the law and add a federal prohibition on paramilitary conduct with civil and criminal penalties. With threats of such activity escalating greatly, I’d like you to support this legislation and push for it to be passed quickly. Please let me know in writing that you will. Thanks!
