ACT
for America Strongly Endorses Confirmation of Sen. Sessions for Attorney
General
As the nation’s
largest national security grassroots advocacy organization, with over 400,000
members and 1,000 chapters nationwide, ACT for America could not be prouder
to endorse the confirmation of Senator Jeff Sessions for Attorney General of
the United States.
Senator Sessions is
a veteran, distinguished attorney, and man of the highest character, who has
been defending the Constitution of the United States of America for over 40
years.
No one is more
prepared to hold the office of Attorney General than a man of Senator
Sessions’ impeccable track record.
After serving his
country as a Captain in the United States Army, Senator Sessions continued
his dedication to his nation by serving as United States Attorney for the
Southern District of Alabama.
During his time
serving the Southern District, Senator Sessions displayed his commitment to
justice and equality by filing civil rights charges against two members of
the Ku Klux Klan, for the murder of an African American man named Michael
Donald.
Senator Sessions
would go on to serve as Attorney General for the State of Alabama, and
subsequently further his commitment to public service when he was elected to
the Senate in 1996.
Shortly after his
arrival in the Senate, Senator Sessions further displayed his respect and
admiration for civil rights, when he co-sponsored a bill to award Rosa Parks
the Congressional Gold Medal.
In addition to his
commitment to upholding civil rights, Senator Sessions will be an Attorney
General that understands the importance of upholding rule of law in this
country.
No longer will our
nation have to worry about the Justice Department blatantly ignoring the
enforcement of our nation’s immigration laws.
When a beautiful
young woman named Kate Steinle was senselessly murdered in front of her
parents by five times deported, seven times convicted felon in this country
illegally, Senator Sessions reinforced his long-held belief that sanctuary
cities are a threat to the safety of the American public, and must be
eliminated.
At a time when our
country is at war with a radical Islamic adversary, it becomes critically
important to have an Attorney General willing to recognize and address the
threats within our own borders.
With all of this in
mind, we wholeheartedly endorse the appointment of Senator Sessions for
Attorney General of the United States.
There is no one
better prepared, or deserving of this prestigious title and tremendous
responsibility than a man with Senator Sessions’ unequivocal track record of
patriotism, public service, and legal experience.
We encourage all of
those who care about the safety of their country and communities to call or
email members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and let them know of your
ardent support for the confirmation of Senator Sessions.
You may call the
Senate switchboard at 202-224-3121

address.
