Article I, Section 3
Section 3 fully rounds out Article I and its discussion about people. Its laser focus on the protection of the people's rights and on the citizens' power to review power rounds out an important framing. Where the Constitution of 1789 has three co-equal branches of government, this Charter has effectively established a fourth, sovereign branch – the people of the United States. This is a shortfall in the Constitution of 1789 that I set out to deliberately address from the outset. Section 3 finalizes what citizen sovereignty looks like.
