Dear President Biden,
We write to you with grave concern about the radical agenda your administration is imposing on the American people. When you ran in 2020, a major theme of your campaign was to bring America together. Instead, your actions have indisputably divided the country. You and your most dedicated allies in Congress regularly demonize and dehumanize anyone who holds Judeo-Christian or conservative values, as well as anyone who dares to resist your agenda to deconstruct the morals, laws, and freedoms that have sustained our great Republic.
We have attached a detailed list of your policies that are irrevocably damaging our country. In almost every case, a majority of the American people reject your attacks on their most deeply held liberties and your failed economic and foreign policies.
Threatening Our Democracy
• You have weaponized federal law enforcement against your political opponents. The lawfare your allies have waged against former President Donald Trump is reminiscent of a Soviet show trial, not our constitutional Republic. As a result, America is quickly losing its moral credibility to promote freedom and democracy abroad.1
• Your government agencies regularly attack our Bill of Rights, most notably our First Amendment rights to freedom of religion, speech, and assembly.2
• You and your allies are undermining the institution of the Supreme Court while smearing individual justices, putting their physical safety at risk. You have outright defied Supreme Court decisions.3
Undermining Religious Liberty
• Your agencies are issuing multiple regulations, directives, and mandates that are restricting the religious conscience rights of citizens and faith-based institutions.4
• Your FBI has infiltrated and monitored Catholic churches, while your IRS harasses religious nonprofits that dare to advocate Christian citizenship.5
Discounting Parental Rights
• Your Justice Department labeled concerned parents who protested at school board meetings as possible "domestic terrorists," and set up a special 800 number to report them.6
• Your administration regularly attacks the rights of parents to raise and educate their children.7
• You aggressively oppose school choice programs that would most benefit minority and urban children.8
Devaluing the Sanctity of Life
• In the face of serious challenges at home and abroad, you have declared an emergency and mobilized the entire federal government to ensure that the number of abortions in America continues to grow year after year. This has even led to the sentencing of elderly grandmothers to multiple-year jail terms for peacefully demonstrating in line with their sincere religious beliefs.9, 10
• In blatant defiance of your own expressed Catholic faith, you uplift the right to painfully kill unborn children, and have expressed a desire to codify it into federal law.11
Dividing People by Race
• You regularly employ rhetoric that amplifies racial divisions for your own political gain. This is "race-baiting," and it is immoral.12
• You have abandoned Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr.'s dream of a society built on character, not the color of our skin.13
Risking America's Welfare through Open Borders
• You have willfully failed to enforce the laws governing immigration, allowing millions of people who we can't possibly "vet" to enter our country—many from nations that are enemies of the United States.14
• American minority communities and veterans have often been kicked out of recreation centers, playgrounds, and other facilities to make way for millions of migrants.15
Threatening the Well-being and Safety of Women
• Your administration is eliminating safe spaces for women by allowing men to use their bathrooms, changing rooms, and locker rooms.16
• You are gutting the Title IX guarantee of equality in women's sports by forcing women to compete against male athletes. Women are being deprived of honors, medals, and scholarships because of cheating men.17
Foreign Policy that Weakens America and Its Allies
• You have tried to appease campus anti-Semites and radical Islamists in Congress, such as Representatives Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, by interfering in Israel's domestic politics and preventing Israel from destroying Hamas.18
• You threaten other countries that have traditional cultures by trying to force them to accept abortion and same-sex marriage, or else face a cut-off of U.S. aid.19
• Your administration supports compromising America's sovereignty by signing a treaty or binding agreements with the World Health Organization (WHO) without the consent of the Senate.20
• Your disastrous and cowardly withdrawal from Afghanistan cost precious lives and sent a signal of weakness to the world.21
Destroying the Economy
• Your massive deficits are breaking the backs and budgets of working-class and middle-class families. You condemn our children and grandchildren to lives of debt and fewer opportunities.22
• You are planning a massive tax increase in 2025.23
• Under your fiscal watch, inflation continues to rise at an unbearable rate.24
Demoralizing Law Enforcement
• You and your allies have undermined and demoralized the brave men and women of law enforcement.25
• The rising crime and anti-law policies you supported are making all American citizens less safe, particularly in the minority communities you claim to care about. 26
Corrupting and Harming the Welfare of America through LGBTQ Ideology
• The LGBTQ movement began with a call for "tolerance." But now you join those who are attempting to make every American kneel to their ideological demands. You promote more days, weeks, and months dedicated to honoring that agenda than days dedicated to honoring America, our flag, and our veterans. You even celebrated March 31 this year—Easter Sunday—as "Transgender Day of Visibility!" 27, 28
• Your Education, Human & Health Services, and Justice Departments are pushing radical "trans" ideology based on a non-scientific lie that a child can be trapped in the wrong body. Your support for radical surgeries and powerful chemical treatments for children is destroying lives. Even as other countries stop the "gender-affirming" treatment of drugs and surgeries of minors due to recent medical research, you and your administration continue to promote it recklessly.29
• You have weakened our armed forces with your constant promotion of the LGBTQ agenda and DEI. As the Commander in Chief of our armed forces, you have placed "wokeness" before the safety of America.30
Mr. President, the moral and constitutional framework that sustains our Republic is at risk of collapsing due to your ill-advised and un-American policies. We urge you and your administration to seriously consider your overwhelmingly low approval ratings and failing policies and take immediate corrective action. We, the people of the United States, expect nothing less from our leaders and will pray to this end.
Respectfully,
Gary Bauer, Senior Vice President of Public Policy, Dr. James Dobson Family Institute
