To
We The People’s elected representatives
As Assembled In Congress
As
stated in the Declaration
of Independence - all men are created equal, endowed
with certain unalienable rights. Among these rights is
the right to create a government to secure their rights.
Furthermore,
it is stated that the government derives their just
powers from the consent of those governed, in other
words – from We The People.
And
not only is it a right of the people – it is their
solemn duty, to provide, and safeguard their future, by
not consenting to accept that which is unacceptable –
from their government.
Wherefore,
We The People of the United States, did ordain and
establish the Constitution
of the United States to secure Liberty to ourselves
and our Posterity.
Prior
to ratification, We The People expressed a desire that
in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of the
powers of The Constitution that further restrictive
clauses called the Bill
of Rights be added.
The
following is contained within the list of amendments
known as the Bill of Rights:
Amendment
IX - Rule of construction of Constitution states
that:
“The
enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights,
shall not be construed to deny or disparage others
retained by the people.”
Amendment
X - Rights of the States under Constitution states
that:
“The
powers not delegated to the United States by the
Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are
reserved to the States respectively, or to the
people.”
We
The People, in lieu of our unalienable rights, both as
enumerated in the Constitution, and those others
retained by the people, do hereby; seek redress of the
following issues: |
