Here is the wording that is being proposed by the left
Amendment XXVIII
Section 1. The sovereign right of the people to govern being essential to a free democracy, the First Amendment shall not be construed to limit the authority of Congress and the States to define, regulate, and restrict the spending and other activity of any corporation, limited liability entity, or other corporate entity created by state or federal law or the law of another nation.
Section 2. Nothing contained in this Article shall be construed to abridge the freedom of the press.
So, basically what this says is
Amendment XXVIII
Section 1. The sovereign right of the people to govern being essential to a free democracy, the First Amendment shall not be understood to limit the authority of Congress and the States to define, regulate, and restrict the spending and other activity of any corporation, limited liability entity, or other corporate entity created by state or federal law or the law of another nation.
Section 2. Nothing contained in this Article shall be construed to abridge the freedom of the press.
Now the first amendment says this:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Nowhere does it say Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech ‘of the people’. It’s a broad statement that Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, period.
So what this proposed amendment will do is supersede the 1st giving Congress the right to MAKE law to ‘abridging the freedom of speech’ (and all the rest of the 1st)
AND change Article 4; Section 4, that The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican (Republic) Form of Government
Because it interjects the word ‘Democracy’
This is a very dangerous proposed amendment that would give Congress, through law, to do as they please with regards to establishing religion and free exercise thereof, speech, right to peaceably assemble, or petition the government of redress of grievances.
Anyone who would sign this thing is essentially saying to ‘take my rights’.
