Controversies
League of the South
Mauch received media attention following his election for his association with the League of the South, an organization that advocates the "secession and subsequent independence of the southern states from this forced union." According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, "the League believes the 'godly' nation it wants to form should be run by an 'Anglo-Centric' (read: white) elite that would establish a Christian theocratic state."[6]
Mauch, who is a former head of the Sons of the Confederate Veterans post in Hot Springs, AK, has called the Confederate flag "a symbol of Jesus Christ" and of "Biblical government."[6] When asked about his association with the League of the South by the Arkansas Times, Mauch acknowledged that he is a member but added that he is "too busy" to be active in the organization. He denied that the League advocated secession from the Union, though he claimed that the group wants "constitutional government" and that secession "has never been unconstitutional."[6]
