After losing the 2020 election, former President Donald Trump said \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter if you won or lost the election. You still have to<\/em><\/strong> fight like hell.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> [1] \r\n<\/p>\r\n

Does this sound like an \u201cofficial\u201d act of the presidency to you? \r\n<\/p>\r\n

This shocking quote comes from Special Counsel Jack Smith's newly unsealed evidence, which challenges the Supreme Court\u2019s dangerous ruling on presidential immunity and confirms what we know: presidents shouldn\u2019t have a blank check to try and overturn the will of the voters.<\/strong> [1] \r\n<\/p>\r\n

But here\u2019s the good news: with Common Cause\u2019s support, Rep. Joe Morelle has introduced a constitutional amendment that will permanently<\/em><\/strong> declare that no American is above the law<\/strong> \u2013 not even former presidents \u2013 and prohibit presidents from pardoning themselves. [2]\r\n<\/p>\r\n

This is a chance to right the Supreme Court\u2019s wrong. Add your name if you agree: Attempting to overturn an election is not an \u201cofficial\u201d act of the president. No one is above the law, including Donald Trump. <\/strong>\r\n<\/p>
