A movement dedicated to restoring the constitutional rights of Americans with felony convictions
Reclaiming Constitutional Rights
The Constitutional Foundation
The Bill of Rights established ‘Declaratory and Restrictive Clauses’ designed to protect the inherent rights of all citizens. Our movement is founded on the principle that these rights were intended to be INVIOLATE for every American throughout their lives, even after serving a sentence for a criminal conviction.

Understanding Your Constitutional Rights
The Bill of Rights established protections that were intended to be maintained for all citizens
The First Amendment
Protects freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and the right to petition the government. These fundamental freedoms were designed to be maintained for all citizens regardless of past convictions.
The Second Amendment
Affirms the individual right to keep and bear arms. The Supreme Court confirmed this as an individual right in 2008, yet many with past convictions face permanent restrictions to this constitutional protection.
The Fifth Amendment
Requires due process of law, including indictment by a grand jury for serious crimes. This amendment was designed to prevent the wholesale ‘felonization’ of citizens for non-violent, non-sexual, and non-treasonous acts.
The Fourteenth Amendment
Guarantees that states cannot abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens, nor deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. This reinforces that constitutional rights should be protected at both federal and state levels.
