Make it Illegal for Convicted Felons to Run for Office
To: V.P. Harris
From: A constituent in Wilmington, NC
August 20
Please know how grateful we all are for your positivity and competence, but mostly for your decency and humanity. Will you please put together a team whose sole purpose look at all the supposed guardrails and norms of democracy that Trump and his supporters abused? I want to be sure we close these loopholes for the next unprincipled power-hungry human who comes along, heaven forbid, to insure our democracy is safe. At the top of the list should be a law that makes it impossible for convicted felons to run for office. Thank you for everything you’re doing, and for choosing such a wonderful candidate as your running mate, Tim Walz. I am overwhelmed with gratitude and hope for our future!
