The National Guard are not improving safety in Washington DC, a federal court has ruled their presence to be illegal, and Guard members are increasingly detaining people in DC without cause — sometimes violently. Now, with the federal elections on the horizon. As the regime undoes voting rights and gerrymanders electoral maps, it’s clear that having National Guard stationed in the nation’s capitol are a threat to both local communities in DC and our national democracy.

DC communities want the National Guard out of DC now. These soldiers are not here for our safety, they are a danger to people here, and we want them gone.

As of today, the governors of 20 states and territories have sent National Guard members to DC. Use the form below to send a letter to all 20 governors making it clear the people of DC do not want these soldiers and their ongoing deployment could result in seditious interference in the peaceful transfer of power.
