Reject HB1 Section 70302 provisions limiting who can sue the government.

The proposed change to Section 70302 poses a grave threat to the fundamental rights of Americans by erecting prohibitive financial barriers to accessing the judicial system. Requiring exorbitant bonds and fees for filing lawsuits against the federal government would effectively deny justice to all but the wealthiest individuals and corporations. This measure strikes at the heart of our democratic principles by consolidating power in the hands of an oligarchy while stripping legal recourse from ordinary citizens. Upholding the rule of law and safeguarding constitutional rights necessitates that the judicial branch remains accessible to all, regardless of economic status. The ability to hold the government accountable through the courts is a cornerstone of our system of checks and balances. Denying this critical avenue for redress would enable unchecked abuse of power and a dismantling of civil liberties. I urge you to protect the rights of your constituents by rejecting Section 70302 and any measures that would undermine equal access to justice. Preserving a fair and equitable judicial system is paramount to maintaining a truly democratic society. The consequences of this egregious overreach would be far-reaching and detrimental to the foundations of our nation. Stand firmly against this assault on the principles of liberty and justice for all.
