ACSOL Letter to DOGE Requests Elimination of All Funding for SORNA

Source: ACSOL

The Alliance for Constitutional Sex Offense Laws (ACSOL) has prepared and sent a letter to the federal Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), headed by Elon Musk, to eliminate all funding for the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA).  According to that letter, annual funding for SORNA exceeds $10 billion.

The letter states clearly that SORNA funding has punished and continues to punish U.S. citizens required to register.  The letter identifies three agencies — Department of Justice, Department of State and the General Services Administration — as recipients of SORNA funding.

For example, SORNA requires individuals convicted of a sex offense involving a minor, including offenses that did not include violence or even physical touching, to have a “unique identifier” added to their passport.  This identifier is now printed on page one of the passports of affected registrants and can result in the denial of entry into countries.  In the history of the world only two countries — Nazi Germany and the USSR — have added similar markings to the passports of their citizens.  For both countries, the passports of only their Jewish citizens had this marking.

The letter also addresses recently issued regulations which require registrants to take actions that are not possible in the state where they live.  For example, the regulations require many registrants to register four times a year despite the fact that state law requires registration only once a year.  

ACSOL will post any and all replies to this letter on this website.

I am most certainly not a fan of Trump and don’t think I voted for Elon Musk, but he seems to be wielding a lot of power, but I think this would be great way to cut Federal spending. Way to go!!!

Janice, This is the BEST use of DOGE I’ve seen – and possibly the only one!!! Thanks for your forethought and on-going push forward to change the law. Wish I could be there – but I’m here in San Diego “running the show” at COSA (Circles of Support and Accountability) – now with 80 participants, while our Operations/Case Manager, Sean Wood, is back there with you in Washington DC. Anyone look for a representative from SAN DIEGO look for SEAN WOOD – he’s courageous, passionate and a force for change. Peace and Blessings. Rev. Dr. Andrea Travers, Dir. COSA San Diego
