John,

Every institution committed to upholding our democracy and the rule of law has the responsibility to ensure that something like January 6th never happens again.

The January 6th insurrection was a shameful day for our nation. The fact that people who participated in that attack continue to serve in government throughout the country represents an acute threat to the future health of our democracy.

It is vital that we stop insurrectionists from holding office.

Right now, the Connecticut General Assembly is considering SB 244, which would do just that!

This bill would do two important things. First, it makes anyone who previously took an oath to the Constitution and then engages in rebellion or insurrection permanently ineligible to hold elected or appointed office in Connecticut or serve in the armed forces. Second, it makes anyone convicted of rebellion, insurrection, or seditious conspiracy, or a felony in relation to any such act, permanently ineligible to be employed by the state or any of its political subdivisions.

We’re urging the Connecticut General Assembly to pass this bill, and to be the first state to bar insurrectionists from office, setting a precedent for the entire nation.

Urge the Connecticut General Assembly to take action by signing your name to support Connecticut’s bill banning insurrectionists from office →

Thanks for signing,

Team CREW
