I am writing today to urge you to uphold the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which bars Donald Trump from taking the office of President by objecting in writing to the certification of the Electoral College votes. Experts say there are ample legal grounds for disqualifying Trump from office under the 14th Amendment. Evan A. Davis and David M. Schulte, former editors of the Columbia Law Review and Yale Law Journal, respectively, wrote that if one-fifth of the members of each chamber of Congress object in writing to certification of enough of his Electoral College votes, and a majority of the members in each house vote to sustain, then he cannot take office. They pointed to three legal proceedings as evidence Trump is an insurrectionist barred  from holding office under the 14th Amendment. One proceeding is the bipartisan Jan. 6 Committee, which determined in December 2022 that Trump “unlawfully pressured State officials and legislators to change the results of the election” in 2020 and that his “false allegations that the election was stolen” summoned “tens of thousands of supporters” to D.C., where he encouraged their armed and violent Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021. Drawing on the Jan. 6 Committee’s findings, Davis and Schulte wrote that “Trump unlawfully demanded that his vice president, Mike Pence, throw out votes in the Electoral College for political opponent Joe Biden, a power [Pence] did not have. While the riot was in progress, Trump used Pence’s rejection of his demand to further inflame the crowd and cause them to chant ‘Hang Mike Pence!’”  They also pointed to Trump’s second impeachment trial in February 2021. The House of Representatives impeached him for inciting insurrection, but while a majority of Senators voted to find him guilty, the Senate failed to secure the two-thirds vote required to convict him. Finally, Davis and Schulte note that, as the Supreme Court wrote in March 2024, “After a five-day trial, the [Colorado] state District Court found that former President Trump had ‘engaged in insurrection’ within the meaning of” the Fourteenth Amendment. The Supreme Court did not address that finding further, concluding rather that “responsibility for enforcing” the relevant portion of the amendment rests with Congress, not the states. Donald Trump is a traitor, and should not be permitted to further sully the Office of President. Thank you for your time.
