Designate the Ku Klux Klan as a Domestic Terrorist Organization

The Issue

The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) has a documented history of terrorism, violence, and racial intimidation spanning over 150 years. It is personal to me that this white supremacist group, which has committed heinous acts of terrorism, continues to exist. It is disturbing to know that the KKK, an organization implicated in countless racial attacks and hate crimes, is not officially recognized as a domestic terrorist group. According to the Southern Poverty Law Centre, there are still active KKK groups in the US today. Given its deep-rooted history and continued presence, it is of paramount importance that the KKK, with its established record of promoting violence and hatred, be officially designated a Domestic Terrorist Organization. Help us send a clear message against hate and intolerance. Let's not wait any longer. Sign this petition to designate the KKK as a Domestic Terrorist Organization.
