Congress Members File Amicus Brief in Support of Trump's Ballot Access: A group of 179 Congress members argue that only Congress has the power to remove a disability under the 14th Amendment and that removing Trump from the ballot denies this power.

A group of 179 members of Congress, led by Representative Jim Jordan, filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court arguing against the removal of former President Donald Trump from the ballot in Colorado based on the 14th Amendment. They argue that only Congress has the power to remove a disability under Section 3 of the amendment, and that removing Trump from the ballot would deny Congress this power. They also argue that the question of whether Section 3 applies to Trump is a political question, and that the Colorado Supreme Court's decision lacks neutral principles and could lead to widespread debaloting of political opponents.
