Social Media and the Marine Corps League
Marines,
Most
of us these days have a social media presence, whether it is Facebook,
Twitter, Instagram, Snap Chat and so many others. As a reminder, what
you post on your own account is your own business, however, if you are
posting in the name of a Detachment, Pound, Department, Division, you
are posting as a representative of the Marine Corps League. We want to
take a moment to remind everyone that the Marine Corps League is a
non-partisan, organization. We do not post political content to our
League pages/account, or in the name of the League. This is a violation
of our National bylaws.
For reference here is the related section:
Section 210. Non-Discrimination. The Marine Corps League:
a. Shall never take part in any labor or management dispute or issue;
b. Shall not be sectarian, political, and partisan;
c. Shall not be based on race, color, creed, nationality, or sex;
d. Shall not be used as a medium of political ambition or preferment’ and
e. Shall not use former or present
military rank or former or present civilian position as the basis for
special consideration and preferment.
