More on The Class Action Lawsuit
Excerpt: "This historic lawsuit places one core issue on the table:
Do We The American People enjoy popular sovereignty over our government, or not?
Is the United States Federal Government accountable to We The People, and subject to our Petitions, or not?
This lawsuit will challenge the entire paradigm of legal thought that has defined the course of America for the past 50-75 years. This historic lawsuit will not rest on the definition of certain legal words of art, the interpretation or application of specific Titles and Sections of the U.S. Code, or the effect of previous court decisions.
From the inception of our nation the Right to Petition was virtually unquestioned as a means for individuals to be heard by Congress. As required, Congress directly answered these Petitions and even crafted significant volumes of legislation upon their content. In the early 1830’s Congress began to receive an abundance of Petitions from abolitionists against slavery. In 1840, southern Congressmen succeeded in getting the House to pass a “gag rule,” requiring the permanent tabling of all such Petitions. The Rule was not challenged in court and became procedural precedent until the Right to Petition effectively became the “forgotten Right”. In 1845, under John Quincy Adams’ leadership the unconstitutional gag rule was repealed, but, by then it was too late, the precedent was established.
People have fought to protect, preserve and defend this ancient Right for hundreds of years, ever since the Middle Ages. It is the sole instrument by which the People, either as individuals, or as minority groups, can peacefully secure and exercise the unalienable Right to individual freedom that is God’s blessing to every human being.
Once the court, as we believe it must, recognizes this forgotten Right, elected officials at every level of government will once again be forced to listen and respond to the concerns of their constituents, rather than lobbyists alone. Individuals and small groups of Americans will once again be able to hold their elected officials directly accountable to the spirit and intent of the Constitution. And where government persists in unconstitutional acts, the People will be able to lawfully withhold their taxes until their questions are honestly answered and the grievances are remedied.
