Declaration 17: 'A Declaration of Independence' Opposing Trump Policies and Practices


Modeled after our country’s July 4, 1776 Declaration of Independence, today 112 Americans have declared their independence from the policies and practices of President Donald J. Trump and his administration. 

The group’s goal is to heighten public understanding of the Founding Documents that articulate America’s core principles. They will sponsor public readings and discussion of the Declaration of Independence and Constitution moderated by activists, workers, authors and actors, academics, and lawyers to show how the provisions of law and universal values set forth by the founders differ from those of President Trump and his administration.
