An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress

Upholding the Rule of Law Recent Statements by Vice President JD Vance

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding recent statements made by Vice President JD Vance that appear to challenge the foundational principle of the rule of law in our nation. Specifically, Vice President Vance has suggested that the administration may choose to disregard court orders with which it disagrees. Such rhetoric undermines the checks and balances that are essential to our constitutional democracy. The judiciary serves as a critical check on executive power, ensuring that all actions taken by the government adhere to the Constitution and established laws. Disregarding judicial authority not only threatens this balance but also sets a dangerous precedent that could erode public trust in our legal institutions. The open disrespect for the law and the court system must be disturbing to you as an elected official. I urge you to take a firm stand in defense of the rule of law. It is imperative that Congress reaffirms its commitment to upholding the Constitution and ensures that no individual or administration is permitted to operate above it. Thank you for your attention to this pressing matter. I look forward to your response and to learning about the actions you will take to protect our democratic principles.
