Donald Trump abused the power of the presidency to enrich himself, to shield his children and cronies from accountability, and to attack critics and political adversaries.
The Protecting Our Democracy Act — recently introduced in Congress — would take steps to prevent future presidents from following Trump’s corrupt example.
The Protecting Our Democracy Act would:
- Prevent presidents from issuing self-serving pardons.
- Stop presidents from profiting from office.
- Make sure presidents can be prosecuted for wrongdoing while in office.
- Require candidates for president to disclose their tax returns.
Passing the Protecting Our Democracy Act is vital to ensure that future presidents can’t abuse their power.
Tell Congress:
Pass the Protecting Our Democracy Act to restore checks and balances, increase transparency, prevent corruption, and limit future abuses of presidential power.
