BILL: The No Kings Act

"John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act: Restoring Federal Oversight to Protect U.S. Voting Rights" S. 4973, also known as the "No Kings Act," is a bill introduced in the U.S. Senate aiming to reassert Congressional authority over the application of federal criminal laws to all individuals, including the President. It explicitly states that no President is above the law and seeks to limit Supreme Court jurisdiction in cases concerning presidential immunity from prosecution. The bill cites prior court rulings and constitutional arguments to support its assertions, while also establishing procedures for judicial review of its provisions. Its core purpose is to prevent any form of presidential immunity from criminal prosecution, except as explicitly defined by Congress.
