A federal appeals court has revived a constitutional challenge to Rep. Madison Cawthorn’s (R-N.C.) right to run for reelection because of his support for insurrectionists who attacked the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
Voters and the organization Free Speech for People have argued in court that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment bars lawmakers like Cawthorn from running again for office.
Do we support the Constitution or not? Insurrectionists CANNOT be part of the government they tried to overthrow.
Court Revives Challenge To Madison Cawthorn's Reelection Effort
The Republican primary in Cawthorn’s district is May 17, but a court has to decide if supporting the Capitol riot disqualifies him.
