Preserving Liberty: Congresswoman Douglas Opposes Mundt-Nixon Bill, 1950-08-29

Congresswoman Helen Gahagan Douglas supports rooting out spies, traitors, and saboteurs, as well as removing subversive elements and poor security risks from government service. She believes in enforcing existing laws to protect the country, but opposes the Mundt-Nixon bill and similar legislation that she believes infringes on liberty and undermines democracy. Douglas is committed to fighting for freedom at home and abroad, and urges legislation to be passed with reason and careful consideration for America's security.
