Official Statements

As an organization committed to ethical government, MWEG opposes gerrymandering under any and all circumstances. Our position on this issue has been consistent, and it is deeply rooted in our nonpartisanship.

In recent days, the president and members of his Cabinet have made unprecedented and unfounded attacks on a former president and other public officials. These have escalated into real threats of prosecution and imprisonment and were accompanied by a deepfake AI video and image portraying an arrest.

Utah Sen. Mike Lee’s online comments masked and minimized the devastation of the shootings. He capitalized on a tragedy to score political points, and he demonstrated a callous indifference to the loss of life.

Our nation will thrive in peace as we view one another with dignity and humanity. We must not forget that this peace is always within our reach. It is up to us to build it.

In two executive orders issued on April 9, 2025, President Donald Trump continued to push false claims about the 2020 election and targeted those who have said the 2020 presidential election was free, fair, and secure.

We are committed to preserving the rule of law, individual rights, and a citizenship grounded in mutual responsibility and care. Our loyalty is to the Constitution, not to any party or person.

President Trump signed a sweeping executive order claiming authority over elections the Constitution clearly grants to Congress and states.

Democracy is not guaranteed. We call on Congress to honor their duty and provide a check on activity not aligned with the rule of law.

President Donald Trump’s indiscriminate pardons of those who participated in the insurrection on Jan. 6, fly in the face of the rule of law.
