- President Donald Trump’s administration obtained a criminal indictment last week charging SPLC with defrauding its own donors by using paid informants to infiltrate far-right organizations.
- SPLC is a civil rights group that tracks political extremists. It condemned last week’s charges as “false allegations.”
- “We respectfully request your testimony at a hearing of the Committee on the Judiciary on May 20, 2026,” U.S. Representative Jim Jordan from Trump’s Republican Party said in a letter to Bryan Fair, SPLC’s interim president and CEO.
- Many rights advocates have raised alarm over what they call the Trump administration’s crackdown on civil rights groups and voices of dissent.
- The 55-year-old law center had long shared information it collected with the FBI and other law enforcement groups before the Trump administration cut ties with the SPLC six months ago.
- The congressional hearing will examine the role that SPLC “has played in distorting federal civil rights policy in recent years,” Jordan said in his letter on Tuesday.
- Jordan claimed SPLC’s reports on hate in the U.S. included a “highly partisan understanding of ‘hate’” against conservatives.
- SPLC says its program of paid informants has “saved lives” and was not a secret to the federal government.
- The FBI also uses paid informants in its investigations.
