Articles I, II, and III of the US Constitution outline the Powers of the three CO-EQUAL branches of the United States.

#LWV #LWVCKC #LWVCKCIL #USConstitution #Democracy #LegislativeBranch #JudicialBranch #ExecutiveBranch

Blue background, LWV logo, and the following text: No branch of government can take power away from another. When one branch tries to take another branch's power, this violates the US Constitution, and we must stop it immediately. Call your senators and representatives and urge them to protect the checks and balances in the US Constitution!

The US Constitution belongs to "We the People," and ultimately We the People are entrusted with its care.

Our system of government requires the faithful execution of the duties of all three co-equal branches of government.
