Vance Comments on Twitter

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding recent comments made by J.D. Vance about eliminating the separation of powers. Such rhetoric threatens to push the United States further into a constitutional crisis. As you know, the Founders established three branches of government to create a system of checks and balances. The separation of powers is a fundamental constitutional principle that divides the U.S. government into the legislative, executive, and judicial branches. Each branch has distinct responsibilities and powers, designed to work together to ensure effective governance while preventing the concentration of power in any one branch. Given the current challenges facing our democracy, including growing concerns about the integrity of the Supreme Court, it is critical that Congress remains independent from the executive branch. Preserving this independence is essential to upholding the rule of law and protecting the constitutional framework that defines our nation. I urge you to speak out against any efforts to undermine the separation of powers and to defend the principles upon which our democracy was built. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter.
