Dear Friends,

With the inauguration of Trump, more attention is being paid to the 25th Amendment to the Constitution.

This amendment lays out a process for determining whether a president is able to discharge his or her duties. As I looked into it, I realized that there may need to be further actions in order to make the 25th Amendment work.

After conferring with prominent constitutional scholars, I formed a congressional working group to begin addressing these issues.

I'd like to invite you to join me at a public forum to consider some of the pros and cons of this amendment. I also look forward to hearing your thoughts. As is my tradition, we will leave plenty of time for people to offer up their opinions on any issue, ask questions, or make comments.

Please join me at a public forum.

Saturday, March 11th at 10 am; doors open at 9 am.

Benson High School Auditorium

546 NE 12th Ave
