A Message From ACS

Why we’re taking the oath.

The Constitution is more than a document from our history. It provides the foundation for our system of government and establishes rights and responsibilities that continue to shape our lives today.

On Constitution Day, I hope you’ll join me in taking this oath—not as a statement of party or ideology, but as an affirmation of a Constitution that belongs to all of us.

Phil Brest
President, American Constitution Society
