A Focus on the Constitution: 2020 has been a very interesting year, to say the least. And during this very interesting year, we have faced many questions regarding what authority the government has been given to act in the face of emergencies and unusual circumstances. There have been strong opinions, active debates, and government action for good or for ill. Thankfully, we have a document, a foundational document, which should be at the center of all such discussions. However, in a crisis, it is easy to set aside such foundations, intended to guide governing bodies towards right action, in favor of immediate reaction. For the year 2021, I will be providing additional information on this most important document - the United States Constitution.
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
