Amnesty Bill Now to Show Trump is Constitutionally Disqualified!

2,400 so far! Help us get to 3,000 signers!

I write to you today with a profound sense of urgency about the state of our nation’s democracy. The legacy of January 6th, the unprecedented challenges to the peaceful transfer of power, and the ongoing erosion of public trust in our institutions demand that Congress act decisively to address the unresolved question of former President Donald J. Trump’s role in our political future. I urge you to bring forward a bill of conditional amnesty for Mr. Trump—a measure that would either secure the requisite two-thirds majority vote in Congress or render him disqualified from holding public office under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. This is not a proposal to take lightly. It is a solemn duty to confront the reckoning our democracy faces. By offering such a bill, Congress has the opportunity to fulfill its constitutional responsibility to preserve the integrity of our system of government. This measure would force our elected representatives to go on record: Does Donald Trump deserve clemency for his actions, or should he be barred from ever again occupying a position of public trust? The gravity of this moment cannot be overstated. Failure to address these questions risks further division, emboldens future abuses of power, and weakens our republic in the eyes of history. This bill would create a definitive resolution—one rooted in the rule of law and the principles enshrined in our Constitution. Amnesty, if passed with a two-thirds majority, would allow the nation to move forward with a shared understanding that accountability has been met through deliberation, not vengeance. Conversely, should Congress fail to reach this threshold, disqualification would ensure that the power of public office is not wielded again by someone who has so profoundly tested the boundaries of our democratic norms. I ask you, as a steward of our Constitution, to lead this effort. This is not a partisan issue—it is a question of our nation’s commitment to its foundational principles. The American people deserve clarity, accountability, and the assurance that no individual is above the law. History will remember this moment. It will remember what Congress chose to do—or failed to do—when faced with a challenge that strikes at the core of our democratic values. I implore you to act with courage and conviction. Let us resolve this matter not through silence or hesitation, but through a process that affirms our belief in justice, accountability, and the enduring strength of our republic.
