For the first time in its 53 years of history, the American Nazi Party has registered a pressure group here in Washington, with the intention of pushing Congress to pass bills favorable to their white supremacy ideals. The party assures on its webpage that it aspires to advance national socialist principles in the United States, which include not only the protection of the Aryan race, but also the sustainability of the ecosystem, the wellbeing of children and religious liberty without fear from persecution by the system.
The party’s first lobbyist is John Bowles, 55 years old. In an interview with ABC News, he said, "I always tell my fellow Americans that they need to practice their constitutional rights or their rights will one day be eroded. Lobbying is one way to do that, to try to get your point across to the elected officials in Congress.” he also added, “I'm not going to go in and shove a swastika in their face." Now that he has been registered, Bowles can legally disseminate the party’s principles on Capitol Hill.
The Navy Commander George Lincoln Rockwell founded the party in 1959. Its headquarters are located in Arlington, Virginia, here in Washington’s metropolitan zone. On its webpage the party says that they fight for, “an all-White America; an America in which our children and our grandchildren will play and go to school with other White children.”
In spite of the scandal caused by the registry of their first lobbyist, the American Nazi Party hasn’t had any form of representation on any political level within the North American administration. It exists because the First Amendment of the American Constitution protects all forms of freedom of speech, even in the cases of vindication of terrorism or racism. In past decades, the only thing it has made headlines for is the assassination of its leader, Commander Rockwell, in a Virginian parking lot in 1967.
