Democrats push amendment to limit presidential pardons after Trump's 2025 clemencies, including mass pardons for Jan. 6 rioters.
一群民主党议员,由众议员迈克·莱文和史蒂夫·科恩领导,正在推动宪法修正案,限制总统的赦免权力,因为特朗普总统在2025年初发布了全面的宽恕,包括大规模赦免近1500名1月6日暴乱被告,前众议员乔治·桑托斯和加密货币执行官张.
A group of Democratic lawmakers, led by Representatives Mike Levin and Steve Cohen, are pushing a constitutional amendment to restrict the president’s pardon power after President Trump issued sweeping clemencies in early 2025, including mass pardons for nearly 1,500 January 6 riot defendants, former Rep. George Santos, and cryptocurrency executive Changpeng Zhao.
提议的修正案将禁止自赦、赦免家人、高级官员和竞选工作人员, 并防止赦免有利于总统的个人或经济利益。
The proposed amendment would ban self-pardons, pardons for family, senior officials, and campaign staff, and prevent pardons benefiting the president’s personal or financial interests.
批评者认为这些行动破坏了正义,使受害者和纳税人付出了13亿美元的赔偿和罚款损失,而白宫则认为赦免是公平的。
Critics argue the actions undermine justice and cost victims and taxpayers $1.3 billion in lost restitution and fines, while the White House defended the pardons as fair.
修正案面临很大困难,需要国会多数议员和大多数州批准。
The amendment faces long odds, requiring supermajorities in Congress and ratification by most states.
