Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) on Thursday introduced legislation that would keep critical race theory and broad “anti-American” ideas such as the claim that American “is a fundamentally racist country” out of the military.
Christopher Rufo reported at City Journal that Cotton’s bill is based on the premise that the military should encourage members to “love the United States,” defend the “founding principles of the United States,” and treat everyone as “human beings with equal dignity and protection under the law.” Critical race theory, Cotton’s bill insists, rejects these premises with its notions that America is irredeemably racist and stoking racial division.
