| Tell Congress: We urge you to support the No Kings Act to preserve our democracy. | The Supreme Court's extreme "absolute immunity" ruling in Trump's January 6 case allowed Trump to escape accountability. Now, he's going to be president again. Trump used the extreme SCOTUS ruling to get his classified documents case dismissed, to delay proceedings in his election interference case, and to put off sentencing after his conviction on 34 felony counts for falsifying business records. Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett, and Neil Gorsuch's extreme ruling helped Trump get through to election day. Congress can invalidate the SCOTUS "absolute immunity" decision and say no president is above the law, not even Trump, if they pass the No Kings Act. Sign the petition: Tell your elected representatives in Congress to pass the No Kings Act now! The No Kings Act would undo the SCOTUS Trump immunity ruling and assert that presidents don't have immunity for criminal actions. In her dissenting opinion on the absolute immunity ruling, Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote, "In every use of official power, the president is now a king above the law." She added that she feared for our democracy.3 Her sentiment is brought into even starker focus with Trump set to take office again in January. Congress must take action now before it's too late. Sign the petition: Tell Congress to overturn the disastrous right-wing SCOTUS decision to give American presidents absolute immunity by passing the No Kings Act.
