A citizens’ project · Same rules, left to right
And more prosperously, whoever is in charge this year. How do we disagree and still move forward together? How do we fix what’s broken without breaking what works? How do we help good people make better decisions and choices that benefit as many of us as possible?
We think the answers start with fair rules: rules that bind every official and every party the same way. The Constitution Roadmap Project turns that idea into concrete, plain-language proposals anyone can read, test and argue with. Most need only a law Congress can pass today. For the problems a law can’t reach, there’s Constitution 2.0.
Five proposals you can read today. Each has its own site with a five-minute summary, where you stand, what you’ll hear for and against, and the full draft text.
The same rules for every official, left or right, whoever holds power.
No one in government above the rules, and no one getting rich off the job. Covers Presidents, Members of Congress, judges, appointees, career staff and military leadership, in both parties.
21 bills · 6 promises
Steady money. Steady prices. Same rules, left to right.
Puts the 2% inflation goal into law with public accountability, phases the deficit (not counting interest) down to zero over nine years without touching Social Security checks, and lets prices fall when costs fall.
The Financial Trust Act
A level courtroom. Same rules, left to right.
You shouldn’t be able to pick your judge, judges shouldn’t own a piece of the case, and a court order should mean the same thing whoever it binds. Judges by lottery, no conflicts, orders enforced and lawyers paid.
The Justice Trust Act
A clear count. Same rules, left to right.
Only eligible people vote, every eligible vote counts, and the count is proven right, with rules both sides agree to before anyone knows who will win. A short floor for every State, plus a standard States can choose to join.
The Voter Trust Act
Know the source. Same rules, left to right.
It doesn’t tell anyone what is true. It keeps the government’s hands off lawful speech, shows you who is really talking, labels fakes, and makes deliberate lies that hurt people costly, as far as the First Amendment allows.
The Information Trust Act
For what laws, and the original framework, can’t fix yet.
Some problems sit beyond the reach of any law. Constitution 2.0 is a collection of proposed amendments for them, each explained in plain language and tested against its strongest objections, offered to start a public conversation.
Start with what a law can fix today. Where a law can’t reach, propose the constitutional change and make the case in public. Each proposal stands on its own: you can support one and argue with another.
The Public Trust Act: the same ethics, transparency and accountability rules for every official.
The STEADY Act: a stable dollar, honest budgets and prices that fall when costs do.
The LEVEL Act: judges by lottery, no conflicts, court orders enforced and lawyers paid.
The CLEAR Act: clean rolls, paper ballots in view, and audits before anyone is certified.
The SOURCE Act: no government pressure on lawful speech, fakes labeled, deliberate lies made costly.
Proposals for the problems laws and the original framework can’t fix yet.
Every power one administration uses will be available to the next one, run by the other party. Rules that bind everyone are the only rules that protect everyone.
Plain language up front, the full draft text underneath, and a source for every fact. If a claim can’t be checked, it doesn’t belong here.
These are proposals to read, test and argue with, not a party line. Tell us what’s wrong. The drafts change when the feedback is right.
Next · Constitution 2.0
Some problems sit beyond the reach of any law. A statute can be repealed by the next Congress, struck down by the courts, or never pass because the rules that would change it are written into the Constitution itself. And the framers, writing in 1787, couldn’t foresee everything we face now.
Constitution 2.0 is a collection of proposals for those problems: each one a proposed amendment, explained in plain language, stress-tested against its strongest objections, and traced to precedents from the U.S. and other democracies. They’re offered to start a public conversation, not to end one.
We’re just getting started, and this is the part where you get to shape things. Stay tuned, or jump into the conversation by giving us feedback.
