Daines Calls out Army for Labeling Pro-Life Orgs “Terrorist Groups”
U.S. Senator Steve Daines joined a group of Republican colleagues in sending a letter to Secretary of the Army Christine Wormuth demanding answers after an Army anti-terrorism training depicted pro-life Americans as terrorists. “The American public expects the Department of Defense and its personnel to defend the homeland from actual terrorists, not Americans who seek protections for children in the womb.

U.S. SENATE – Senator Steve Daines today joined his colleagues in condemning the Biden administration’s willingness to knowingly break the law and jeopardize the health and safety of women. “It is disappointing, yet not surprising, that the Biden administration’s DOJ has not only abdicated its Constitutional responsibility to enforce the law, but also has once again twisted the plain meaning of the law in an effort to promote the taking of unborn life.
