Or has Ubama removed that requirement?
pretty sure.
Obama isn’t supposed to legislate from the Oval Office, but he does.
That is an excellent question for which Senator Cruz has a lot of splaynin to do.The article mentions The Reichstag Fire.It is conceivable that the First Amendment rights will be curbed in ways that are not legal or Constitutional.
Two Thirds of each house of the Congress. Three Fifths of the states.
Doesn’t it have to go through the Supreme Court.
This is the Democrats playing trickery.
They did it with Sen. McCain - making him a ‘natural born citizen’ though he wasn’t born in the USA. The method used was in violation of the U.S.Constitution’s stated requirement on altering the document.
I predict there will be NO ratification by two-thirds majority of the States; they will ram it down everyone’e throats, in a clear call to civil disobedience.
The Constitution's Article V indicates that amendments to the Constitution actually have to be ratified by 3/4 of the states.
After watching the video, Harvard Law School-indocrinated Cruz was reasonably giving the wrong impression that the Senate can amend the Constitution. So I'm more dissapointed with Cruz then I already was. And of course the constitutionally ignorant "conservative" crowd that he seemed to be addressing was seemingly swallowing every word that he said.
3/4 of states required to ratify/
2/3s of Senate required to propose.
It’s a long shot but it is dangerous because it seems to focus on campaign funds. But where is free speech more important than in the political arena? So Ted Cruz is spot on as usual to call it what it is, a repeal or neutering of the First Amendment.
I suspect this is the latest long term push being floated by the RATS.
They already are pushing nationwide to eliminate the Electoral Collage.
The RATS in power now have a 40 year plan and this will be part of it.
There is a detailed process in order to amend the constitution. It will not pass the states.
“I know this is a stupid question, but don’t Constitutional Amendments have to be ratified by two-thirds majority of the states?”
I had the same question. Our Constitution was written in such a way as to make sure that neither the Senate or the House had sole power of the law.
Not a stupid question, and I believe you are correct.
It has to be ratified by the states and pass the House before even that.
It wouldn’t surprise me to find out some Senators think they have the power to repeal the amendment though.
Well...legally, yes. But that does not seem to be much of an obstacle to this bunch.
What does you gut tell you about what is right and legal vs. what is being done in DC these days?
The rule of law is dead!
