For too long, presidents of both parties have chipped away at Congress’ constitutional authority, claiming powers that rightfully belong to the people’s branch.

Our Founders designed a system of checks and balances for a reason: to prevent any one branch from ruling unchecked. But when Congress fails to act as a counterweight, presidents act unilaterally. The result is a democracy less accountable and our freedoms less secure.

Join us in calling for:

• Congress to reassert its rightful authority

• The restoration of critical checks and balances

• The prevention of any president — Republican or Democrat — from abusing their power.

This isn’t about left or right. It’s about protecting our democracy’s foundation: Congress makes the laws. The president enforces them.
