Rescind the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act for Honesty in Government


Rescind the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act for Honesty in Government
The Issue
As we strive to restore faith in our government, the personal pain of feeling manipulated and deceived by the very people we elect to represent us becomes too hard to bear. The truth is, the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012, initially intended to facilitate the U.S. government's ability to communicate with foreign audiences, has been cited as a facilitator of untruths and propaganda within our own borders (Library of Congress Bill, 2012). This has left many of us feeling disillusioned and distrusting of our public officials.
It's time to take a stand. To restore honesty in our nation's governing body, we must demand the rescinding of the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act. This appeal is not just about holding our government officials accountable; it's about preserving the integrity of our democracy, the bedrock of our nation.
By signing this petition, you're advocating for transparency, truth-telling, and accountability in our government. Because without public trust, our government will struggle to act effectively on our behalf. Help restore that trust; take a stand against misinformation. Please support this petition to rescind the Smith-Mundt Modernization.
