John,

The foundations of our democracy were shaken on July 1st when the Supreme Court, in a 6-3 decision, granted presidents "absolute immunity" for their official acts while in office. This ruling effectively removes all limits on presidential actions, leaving only self-imposed restrictions on the person occupying the Oval Office.

In response to this alarming development, President Biden has proposed the "No One Is Above the Law" amendment. This constitutional amendment aims to explicitly state that the Constitution does not grant any immunity from federal criminal prosecution to former presidents for crimes committed while in office.

This amendment would close the dangerous loophole created by the Supreme Court's ruling, ensuring that presidents can be held accountable for criminal actions, even those committed under the guise of official duties. By doing so, it would reinforce the fundamental principle that no one, not even the President of the United States, is above the law.

Without this amendment, we face the risk of unchecked presidential power leading to abuse of office. We're on the brink of creating a de facto monarchy, where the president becomes untouchable by the justice system.

This is not a short-term campaign. It's a long-term commitment to preserving the integrity of our democratic system. Build the campaign to win. Become a grassroots co-sponsor of the “No One Is Above the Law” Constitutional amendment by signing on now.

The path to ratifying this amendment requires approval from two-thirds of both houses of Congress and ratification by three-quarters of state legislatures. This process is likely to span several years and will demand sustained, organized effort from citizens across the nation.

History has shown us that even the most challenging constitutional amendments can succeed when backed by persistent effort and widespread public support.

It will require ongoing public education, consistent legislative pressure, and grassroots organizing at both federal and state levels. We're in this for the long haul, prepared to build the infrastructure necessary for a multi-year campaign to ratify this essential amendment.

The stakes couldn't be higher. This amendment will safeguard the principles upon which our nation was founded and ensure that the highest office in our land remains accountable to the people it serves.

Take a stand for the rule of law and the future of our democracy. Add your name in support of the "No One Is Above the Law" amendment.

Together, we can work towards a future where no President is beyond the reach of justice.
