Parents Demanding Justice Alliance Issues Urgent Call to Congress for Action on DOJ Targeting of Parents
The Parents Demanding Justice Alliance has released a formal memo to members of Congress demanding swift accountability for the Department of Justice’s targeting of concerned school parents.
The memo calls for immediate investigation and full redress for parents who were unjustly surveilled, investigated, and maligned for expressing legitimate concerns at local school board meetings and schools. These actions, the Alliance asserts, constituted a severe abuse of federal power and a violation of First Amendment rights.
“The Parents Demanding Justice Alliance is composed of advocates around the nation, united in pressing for full accountability regarding the DOJ’s targeting of parents who expressed good-faith concerns at school board meetings and schools—a directive now under review by President Trump’s Weaponization Working Group,” explains Seak Smith, Founder of Mom Army & Dad Army.
The Alliance cites the February 5, 2025 memo from the Office of the Attorney General titled Restoring the Integrity and Credibility of the Department of Justice, which reaffirmed President Trump’s directive to reverse what he called the “unprecedented, third-world weaponization of prosecutorial power.”
The Alliance also points to the language in the Executive Order: Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government:
“The Department of Justice must take immediate and overdue steps to restore integrity and credibility with the public that we are charged with protecting, and to ensure that the Department’s personnel are ready and willing to faithfully implement the policy agenda of the duly elected President of the United States…The American people have witnessed the previous administration engage in a systematic campaign against its perceived political opponents, weaponizing the legal force of numerous Federal law enforcement agencies and the Intelligence Community.”
“We previously drafted a letter urging Kash Patel and the FBI to act,” says Alliance Founder, Kelly John Walker Walker. “What we need—and expect—is swift and decisive action.”
The Alliance calls on Congressman Andy Ogles (TN) and his congressional colleagues to “join our Alliance in pressing for a full investigation into the DOJ’s assault on parents’ First Amendment rights—and to fight relentlessly until the families wronged by their own government receive formal apologies and full restitution.”
“These families continue to endure severe financial strain, emotional trauma, and reputational damage as a result of being unjustly targeted. Every day without action compounds their suffering,” said Walker. “Our elected representatives have a moral and constitutional duty to protect their constituents from unlawful federal overreach and ensure justice is served.”
The Alliance acknowledges prior engagement from Reps. Ogles, Crane, Jordan, Gosar, and Biggs, whose staff met with Alliance members in Washington in March 2024.
But the Alliance emphasized that “this matter must rise to the top of Congress’s priorities without further delay.”
