The recent Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity represents a dangerous erosion of accountability and the core democratic principle that no one is above the law. The No Kings Act is a necessary response to restore the critical system of checks and balances by clarifying that presidents and vice presidents do not have blanket immunity from criminal prosecution for actions that violate federal laws. This legislation will help uphold the rule of law and ensure that even the highest offices are subject to legal accountability when crimes are committed. Allowing unchecked presidential immunity creates a slippery slope towards authoritarianism and undermines the foundations of our democracy. Upholding the No Kings Act is vital to preserving the integrity of our justice system and the ideals of equal treatment under the law. I urge you to support this crucial legislation to protect the principles this nation was founded upon.
