"America" is literally the first word in the group's name.
Nor does it have mass "influence" compared to PACs that spend 5 to 100 x more like Heritage or, say the DSA.

She never should have been there. Not for that. The President put them in unnecessary danger.
Sarah Beckstrom's ex-boyfriend told NBC News she dreamed of becoming an FBI special agent.
She didn't want to deploy to D.C.
"She hated it. She cried about it."
But she started visiting monuments and museums and started enjoying it.
May she rest in peace.
