The Issue

Congressman Andy Ogles has consistently demonstrated attitudes and actions that have struck many as disgraceful and racist. It's time to hold him accountable for his beliefs and statements that undermine the very foundation of what it means to be a citizen. By requiring Congressman Ogles to take a genetic test, we can challenge him to reflect on his own roots and heritage, and enforce the same standards he wishes to impose on others.

This case is deeply personal because Congressman Ogles has publicly questioned the legitimacy of individuals who have legally attained citizenship. His skeptical stance on the rights of naturalized citizens is not only demeaning but also calls into question his own understanding of what it means to be American.

The truth is, the United States is a nation built by immigrants and enriched by diversity. Denying the citizenship of those who have adhered to legal processes to become part of this nation undermines our shared values and tarnishes our collective history. Congressman Ogles' remarks contribute to a discourse that is divisive and harmful to countless individuals and families seeking to contribute positively to American society.

Let's propose an actionable step: demand that Congressman Andy Ogles undergo a genetic test to trace his own ancestry. If he is indeed found not to have 100% native lineage, he should face the same deportation standards he advocates for others, demonstrating the absurdity of his claims and prejudices.

It's crucial we stand together to hold public figures accountable when they promote divisive rhetoric. By signing this petition, you're sending a powerful message: we value equality, inclusivity, and fair treatment for all citizens, regardless of their pathway to achieving it. Sign today, and let's strive for a more united America.
