Author and Researcher, Jessica Pishko, cited IREHR’s work and research on the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association (CSPOA);

Pishko writes, “Martin also emailed the sheriffs association and individual sheriffs, encouraging them to attend the CSPOA event. (The Institute for Research & Education on Human Rights – IREHR – did a great deal of research on tracking the background for this event, and I am indebted to them for the research.)”

Pishko continues, “The IREHR sent letters to each sheriff’s office in the state as well as lawmakers, urging them to condemn the CSPOA event. At least one legislator issued a statement arguing that the CSPOA event was an example of far-right activity on par with the Oath Keepers.”
