Demanda de descalificación de Trump para 2024
El 30 de enero de 2024, Common Cause presentó un escrito ante la Corte Suprema de Estados Unidos instándolos a descalificar a Donald Trump bajo la 14a Enmienda.
Responsabilidad de la administración Trump
Donald Trump and his administration repeatedly try to undermine our democracy's core values and attack our rights. During this presidency, Common Cause will continue to take bold action to hold the Trump Administration accountable.
Donald Trump ha cometido delitos vergonzosos, desde abusar de su poder y obstruir la justicia hasta interferir en nuestras elecciones e incitar al mortal ataque del 6 de enero de 2021 al Capitolio de Estados Unidos.
Common Cause ha presionado en todo momento para que la administración Trump rinda cuentas, incluso apoyando sus dos juicios políticos. Estos esfuerzos tienen como objetivo dejar en claro que nadie, incluidos los presidentes actuales y anteriores, está por encima de la ley.

Petition: FIRE Elon Musk
Elon Musk is trying to run our government like it’s one of his companies. Our democracy deserves better.
We demand the immediate firing of Elon Musk from ANY position of influence within our government. Musk’s dangerous influence must end now.
It is time to restore power to the American people and ensure that decisions are made by those accountable to the people, not the wealthy elite.

Tell Congress: Protect birthright citizenship
Trump’s executive order attempting to end birthright citizenship would endanger millions of people born in this country and permanently reshape what it means to be an American.
The 14th Amendment is clear – and legal experts say Trump would likely need to pass a constitutional amendment through Congress to overrule it.
Congress must step up and REFUSE to help Trump shred our Constitution. We urge you to protect birthright citizenship and our 14th Amendment today.
