Texas Scorecard by Emily Wilkerson November 22, 2022
A new GOP report released Monday shows how Pentagon leaders and the Biden administration are weakening the military. A new report from the offices of U.S. Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) and U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) reveal how Pentagon leaders are pushing woke ideologies, such as critical race theory and gender theory, within the military.
Under the Biden administration, Bishop Garrison was appointed senior advisor to the secretary of defense for Diversity and Inclusion. Under the title, Garrison leads the Biden administration’s Countering Extremist Activity Working Group. He is also a supporter of the 1619 Project and has stated that systemic racism is one of the greatest threats to America’s national security.
In a press release, Roy says the Pentagon is using taxpayer dollars to promote anti-American ideology within the military.
The Department of Defense’s priority should be training the men and women of our Armed Forces to be a united, lethal, and battle-ready force primed to defend the United States and her interests at a moment’s notice. Instead, Biden’s woke Pentagon is using taxpayer dollars to promote blatant anti-American ideology. It has to stop. We need to end this politicization of our military and keep our Armed Forces focused on defending our national security.Rubio and Roy announced they will push for the Restoring Military Focus Act to become law. The legislation, first introduced by Roy in 2021, would eliminate the military’s chief diversity officer, who is responsible for implementing these woke initiatives.
