Tell President Biden: #End1033 by his 100th day in office
April 30th marks President Biden's 100th day as president -- and we've got a major demand for him before that deadline: End 1033.
Here's what you need to know: The Law Enforcement Support Office, known as the 1033 Program, allows the transfer of surplus military-grade equipment to local law enforcement agencies across the country. It includes school and campus police, too.
Over $7 billion has gone to the law enforcement agencies since its creation under the Clinton administration. Disappointingly enough, the flow of military equipment to police under the 1033 Program has accelerated under the Biden administration.
If we want President Biden to take swift action before his 100th day in office, then we need a lot of voices speaking out right away.
We are calling on the Biden administration to end the 1033 program altogether. Send a message to the White House and let them know -- #End1033 -- by the time President Biden reaches his 100th day in office.
