Donald Trump's nomination of Kash Patel as the next FBI Director threatens public safety and the rule of law.
The FBI's mission is to protect the public from violent crime, including gun violence. But that's not what Patel would do if he's confirmed. Instead, he'd prioritize the gun lobby's "guns everywhere" agenda and use his post to retaliate against Trump's political opponents.
Send a message urging your senators to reject Patel's nomination:
Dear Senator,
I'm urging you to reject Kash Patel's nomination as FBI Director.
The FBI's mission is to protect the public from violent crime, including gun violence. But that's not what Patel would do if he's confirmed. Instead, he'd put our communities at greater risk of gun violence by prioritizing the gun lobby's "guns everywhere" agenda.
Bipartisan leaders—including former federal law enforcement officials—have publicly opposed Patel's nomination.
The FBI needs a director who understands the immense and important responsibilities the agency has to protect our communities and to save lives. Without strong leadership, law enforcement won't have the support needed to do their jobs and our communities will only be further at risk from gun violence.
Please oppose Kash Patel's nomination to be FBI Director.
