New revision of the Uniting Amendment released today

October 21, 2015

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Orford, New Hampshire, October 21, 2015 – The comprehensive amendment to the Constitution commonly known as the Uniting Amendment has a major new revision today. The amendment, which is currently being written by the citizens of the United States, is on a crowdsourced website at UnitingAmendment.com. The amendment covers a full spectrum of issues including taxes, immigration policy, poverty, invasion of privacy, protection for the environment and many more. The new revision introduces a number of changes to the document including a clearer declaration of federal and state powers, more detailed definitions of words and phrases used in the document, and many others. This latest release represents the most extensive revision to the document since the first invitation for contributions from the general public in the early part of 2014.

The purpose of the amendment is to establish a stable foundation to help rebuild our country. With input from those who have participated so far, the effort has developed many fresh and innovative ideas that solve long-entrenched, difficult problems. The current draft of the amendment:

  • Establishes a simple tax system with a low rate and no exemptions that provides more than enough revenue
  • Ends poverty and hunger, and provides healthcare for those in need with a simple, single fund – at less cost than what we pay now
  • Keeps guns out of the hands of violent criminals
  • Preserves the Second Amendment with the right to carry, use, transport, transfer, buy or sell guns or other weapons
  • Protects the environment
  • Recognizes the right to privacy and ends illegal government intrusions
  • Provides a strong defense for our country and prevents politicians from waging war for profit or personal gain
  • Prevents discrimination based on sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, genetics, or any other condition not under one's control
  • Eliminates arbitrary regulation so people have the liberty to pursue their chosen trade or profession
  • Protects threatened and endangered species
  • Establishes term limits for members of Congress
  • Ensures that all of our veterans' needs are met
  • Solves the immigration issue: those who wish to move here and become citizens are elected by the people
  • Protects the right to learn and teach so curiosity and discovery will no longer be limited by political motives
  • Provides a jury of citizens as a check on Supreme Court actions to protect our rights and freedom
  • Protects the right to control your own body – politicians can't tell us what we can eat, smoke, drink and enjoy
  • Defines a set of responsibilities and duties for all people
  • Protects the right of religious expression and prayer
  • Mandates fiscal responsibility and other limits on congressional power
  • Mitigates corruption in government and encourages honest citizens to participate in government
  • And much more...

The amendment is based on our country's common values of liberty and justice, with the goal of increasing integrity and compassion. Although the amendment covers many issues, it leaves intact the form and structure of our government: a democratic republic with the same three branches of government.

As part of a larger effort to rebuild the country, the amendment intends to reestablish a government that is more fair, more free, and has the integrity and compassion needed to move the country forward.

The Uniting Amendment project is being facilitated by Egalib, Inc., a publishing company located in Orford, New Hampshire.
