What is the Uniting Amendment?

The Uniting Amendment is the comprehensive amendment to the Constitution written by the citizens of the United States. The document establishes a new foundation to help rebuild our country.

Our current crop of representatives has the lowest approval rating in history, and it's well-deserved. A combination of gerrymandered districts, government-controlled media, lower citizen participation, and a general erosion of values has produced the most corrupt, insular, and ineffective federal government that Washington has ever seen. Those are not the folks we want to pour the new foundation of our 21th Century Reconstruction.

Washington isn't up to the task so we're doing it ourselves. We're drafting an amendment that will reestablish a government that is more fair, more free, and has the integrity and compassion needed to move forward. With input from just a few hundred people, we've already developed many fresh, 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 with a simple, single fund that provides basic assistance for everyone in need at less cost than what we pay now
• Clearly affirms the right to self-defense in the Second Amendment while keeping guns out of the hands of violent criminals
• 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
• Solves the immigration issue: those who wish to become citizens are elected by the people
• Protects the right to teach and learn 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
• Defines a set of responsibilities and duties for all people
• Protects the right of religious expression and prayer
• Recognizes the right to privacy and ends illegal government intrusions
• Plus anti-corruption provisions, protection for the environment and threatened species, term limits, a balanced budget, limits on congressional power, and much more.

All this while increasing our liberty and ensuring fairness in society. But the document is far from complete.
