Personally, I’m going to contact my Senator, Jim DeMint, to see if he could help. He is a good man who isn’t shy about talking about the dangers this administration poses for the Republic.
You are not alone so keep the faith.
Excellent! Thank you.
He may not be able to do anything at the federal level but maybe he would be willing to help contact state legislators. I don’t have the gravitas to get state legislators to listen to me, but if we can convince great people to support this they can lend their endorsement and together we can do great things.
We probably have some people here on FR who have a lot of influence, and if we can get their support we can do this.
This is really a common-sense response to the problems we’ve recognized these past 2 years. Congress-critters were asking the CRS for guidance on this so they know there are problems with the way it is now, with nobody having a route for documentation to actually be required. And this bill wouldn’t have the vulnerability that opponents said the AZ bill had - that a state SOS is interpreting the Constitution, which only the judiciary can do.
The complaint that one lawyer had with this was the 2-citizen parent requirement, but by putting that in there it requires the courts to address the definition of “natural born citizen”, which is a prerequisite to an SOS being able to know who is eligible or not.
So there’s no reason for notable people to NOT support a bill like this. And if we can get their endorsements it can help us get state legislators to at least consider this.
