Ben Cline votes to support domestic terrorists

In light of the most recent mass shooting events in Buffalo and Uvalde and the 230 other mass shooting events (defined by 4 or more people shot or killed not including the assailant) in the first 6 months of 2022, one would think that there would be overwhelming support for prevention of domestic terrorism.


Unfortunately, our Virginia 6th Congressional District Representative Ben Cline does not agree and he voted against the congressional bill as detailed below. This bill allows law enforcement organizations to create and share information and allow agencies to cooperate with the goal of preventing mass events like shootings and even the Oklahoma City bombing by the domestic terrorist Timothy McVeigh.


This bill has Nothing to do with the Second Amendment. Please see the link to the bill below for further information



Bill Summary:


This bill establishes new requirements to expand the availability of information on domestic terrorism, as well as the relationship between domestic terrorism and hate crimes.


It authorizes domestic terrorism components within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Department of Justice (DOJ), and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to monitor, analyze, investigate and prosecute domestic terrorism.


The domestic terrorism components of DHS, DOJ, and the FBI must jointly report on domestic terrorism, including white-supremacist-related incidents or attempted incidents.


DHS, DOJ, and the FBI must review the anti-terrorism training and resource programs of their agencies that are provided to federal, state, local and tribal law enforcement agencies.


Additionally, DOJ must make training on prosecuting domestic terrorism available to its prosecutors and to assistant U.S. attorneys.


It creates an interagency task force to analyze and combat white supremacist and neo-Nazi infiltration of the uniformed services and federal law enforcement agencies.


Finally, it directs the FBI to assign a special agent or hate crimes liaison to each field office to investigate hate crimes incidents with a nexus to domestic terrorism.
