This section bars anyone who has violated their oath to uphold the US Constitution by “engaging in insurrection”\, from holding public office. Judge Luttig has said that the  Supreme Court’s decision to take up the question of Trump’s eligibility will be “one of the most consequential Supreme Court decisions since the founding of the nation.” \nAbout our Speakers: \nMichael Waldman is president and CEO of the Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law\, a nonpartisan law and policy institute that works to revitalize the nation’s systems of democracy and justice.
