Congressman Bill Pascrell (NJ) summarises: “Stated simply, men and women who would act to tear the United States government apart cannot serve as Members of the Congress. These lawsuits seeking to obliterate public confidence in our democratic system by invalidating the clear results of the 2020 presidential election attack the text and spirit of the Constitution, which each Member swears to support and defend.”
Such attacks on the US Constitution must have consequences. Congressman Pascrell has proposed that leaders of the US House of Representatives “exercise the power of [their] offices to evaluate steps … to address these constitutional violations … and, if possible, refuse to seat in the 117th Congress any Members-elect seeking to make Donald Trump an unelected dictator/” Congressman Pascrell’s proposal is shown at: https://www.insidernj.com/press-release/pascrell-demands-126-members-seeking-overturn-election-not-seated-congress/. Colorado has two Members-elect who supported the Texas lawsuit, Messrs. Ken Buck (District 4) and Doug Lamborn (District 5). I urge Herald readers to contact Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi in support of a Constitutional refusal to seat these two Members-elect.
