Proposed a Bill to outlaw kings

To: Rep. Case, Sen. Schatz, Sen. Hirono

From: A constituent in Ewa Beach, HI

February 20

It is imperative that we uphold the principles of democracy enshrined in our constitution. No individual should wield absolute power or be considered above the law. Former President Trump's recent comments likening himself to a "king" while resigning a crucial environmental program are deeply concerning. Such rhetoric undermines the foundations of our democratic system and promotes an autocratic mindset antithetical to American values. I urge you to propose legislation explicitly prohibiting any claims of monarchical authority or autocratic rule within the United States. Our nation was founded on the rejection of monarchical tyranny, and we must remain vigilant in safeguarding our republican form of government against any encroachments towards authoritarianism or absolutism. The peaceful transfer of power is a hallmark of our democracy, and no individual should position themselves as a ruler exempt from constitutional constraints. Enshrining anti-monarchical principles into law would reinforce our commitment to democratic ideals and send a powerful message repudiating any imperial pretensions. I implore you to take decisive action to defend our republic.
