In part, Cotton wrote, “Houses of worship and pro-life pregnancy centers are under attack.” “What is the Department of Justice doing to protect Americans from these violent attacks? At a minimum, you should bring federal charges against the perpetrators, where appropriate, and investigate ‘Jane’s Revenge’ as a domestic terrorist organization. If you are unwilling to protect Americans from these attacks, you should resign—although, in my opinion, you should resign in any case,” Cotton continued. Text of the letter may be found here and below. The Honorable Merrick Garland U.S. Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, D.C. 20530-0001 Dear Attorney General Garland, Houses of worship and pro-life pregnancy centers are under attack. The Family Research Council has compiled a list of more than 50 attacks against churches, pro-life pregnancy centers, and other pro-life groups in the past few weeks. A left-wing extremist group called “Jane’s Revenge” has taken credit for many of these attacks, including firebombings and grotesque acts of vandalism. The same group has now issued a letter declaring “open season” on all so-called “anti-choice” groups, and calls for terrorist attacks against these groups by anyone “with the urge to paint, to burn, to cut, [or] to jam.” I am appending a list of attacks this group has already claimed at the end of this letter. What is the Department of Justice doing to protect Americans from these violent attacks? At a minimum, you should bring federal charges against the perpetrators, where appropriate, and investigate “Jane’s Revenge” as a domestic terrorist organization. If you are unwilling to protect Americans from these attacks, you should resign—although, in my opinion, you should resign in any case. Sincerely, | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T02:39:01Z |
