Recent reporting has raised serious concerns about extremist groups organizing across state lines, holding combat-style training events, and building coordinated networks in the United States.

As the Guardian reports:

"Social media posts and group chats show members of so-called active clubs from Texas, Tennessee and Pennsylvania have in recent weeks and months traveled to Lynchburg, Virginia, to train together at a secretive compound".

Experts warn that these efforts may be strengthening connections between individuals and groups linked to extremist ideologies, with potential risks to public safety. Some participants have reportedly held positions of public trust, raising further concern about oversight and accountability.

This is not a partisan issue — it is a public safety issue. Americans of all backgrounds deserve to know that credible threats are being taken seriously and investigated appropriately.

We are calling on the U.S. Department of Justice and the FBI to investigate these activities nationwide, ensure laws are enforced, and provide transparency about the risks these networks may pose.

Extremism and violence have no place in our communities. It’s time for clear answers and responsible action.
