We the people ask the federal government to Call on Congress to act on an issue:

Pass a Constitutional Amendment Overturning the Supreme Court's decision on Korematsu v. The United States

Created by S.M. on November 17, 2016

In 1944, the Korematsu v. The United States Supreme Court Case deemed the internment of over 100,000 of Japanese-American citizens constitutional despite it stripping our fellow citizens of their Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment rights. This was a grave mistake then, but it is even graver now. Trump's spokesperson Carl Higbie has already discussed on national news the creation of a registry of Muslim-American citizens citing the Korematsu Decision as precedent. We can not let this happen again. We can not repeat our past intolerances against innocent members of our communities. Please ratify a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court decision on this case and protect the rights of innocent people.
