Political actors will not attempt to remove Article III judges outside the impeachment process; they will not obstruct federal court orders; and they will not tinker with the Supreme Court’s size in order to pack it with like-minded Justices.

  • American Democracy One Year Into the Trump Administration About
    A JOINT REPORT BY: THE REPUBLIC AT RISK: American Democracy One Year into the Trump Administration About THE REPUBLIC AT RISK is a joint report issued by Protect Democracy and Stand Up Ideas. It marks one year into the Trump presidency and asks a simple yet critical question: how are America’s democratic institutions holding up? Protect Democracy is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization with an urgent mission: to prevent our democracy from declining into a more authoritarian form of government. Protect Democracy works to hold the president and the executive branch accountable to the laws and longstanding practices that have protected our democracy through both Democratic and Republican administrations out of a belief that the only limits to prevent a slide away from our democratic traditions will be those that are imposed by the courts, Congress, and the American people. For more information about the organization, go to www.protectdemocracy.org. Stand Up Ideas (SUI) was founded on the belief that love for democracy transcends party, and works to strengthen Americans’ commitment to democratic ideals and norms across the partisan spectrum. At its core, SUI is a leadership and education organization. SUI engages people across the political spectrum who all share a commitment to the principles of individual rights, constitutional checks and balances, rule of law, informed dialogue and demand honest and wise leadership. SUI was founded in 2017 by Evan McMullin and Mindy Finn to address the growing acceptance of autocratic rule in America. For more information about the organization, go to www.standupideas.com. Protect Democracy and Stand Up Ideas would like to thank the many Americans who, over the past year and for decades prior, gave of themselves in order to create and constantly strengthen and improve our country.
