John,
They took selfies with white rioters spewing hate.
They willingly directed the white mob to the offices of Democrat leaders.
And when the white rioters were done wreaking havoc, Capitol Police officers gently escorted them down the Capitol steps.
There are heroes in the Capitol Police force, like the Black officer who led the white mob away from the Senate floor.
But last week laid bare the cold truth that white supremacists have infiltrated the US Capitol Police.
Tell members of Congress to support the COUP Act, which will launch an investigation into the white supremacist infiltration of the Capitol Police.
Investigating the actions of individual officers won’t be enough. Neither is throwing more money at the already bloated $460 million Capitol Police budget.
This is a systemic issue, and a full investigation of the police force is needed.
It’s time we as a country acknowledge that healing can’t happen without accountability. And that accountability must include finding out what role white supremacy played in the decision not to better protect the Capitol from the angry white mob.
Demand that Congress launches an immediate investigation into the US Capitol Police.
John, in response to last week’s attempted coup, our people-powered movement mobilized quickly to hold corporations and tech platforms accountable. Thanks to the quick action of 70,000 SumOfUs members like you, Twitter permanently banned Trump.
And because of our public outcry, many of the world’s biggest corporations have now stopped all donations to the Republicans who helped instigate the racist attempted coup.
Together, we can now make sure that Congress opens an immediate investigation into the connection between members of the US Capitol Police and the white supremacist movement.
Add your name now to demand that Congress passes the COUP Act and rids the Capitol Police of white supremacy.
