Constitution Day Reminds Americans That Socialism Is Incompatible With the American Way of Life
Top lawmakers of the Republican Study Committee championed America’s founding document on Constitution Day, reminding the American people that socialism is incompatible with the American way of life.
The remarks of the committee’s members came weeks after 192 Democrats voted against a resolution denouncing socialism, and several socialist-aligned candidates became the Democratic Party nominees for their congressional districts across the country.
“[At] 239 years ago, our Founders gave us a Constitution built on liberty, limited government, and the belief that power belongs to We the People,” RSC Chairman August Pfluger, R-Texas, stated. “Today, Democrats can’t even bring themselves to reject an ideology that has killed more than 100 million people and failed everywhere it’s ever been tried.”
Rep. Austin Scott, R-Ga., echoed his colleagues’ remarks and told the Daily Signal that the American Constitution “stands as a testament to the wisdom and foresight of the founders of our nation,” which has withstood over two centuries.
Similarly, Rep. Michael Cloud, R-Texas, added that America’s framers “understood our inalienable rights come from God and not government,” adding that this day serves as a reminder for Americans “of what makes America extraordinary and the legacy we must cherish and protect.”
The reason for the committee’s emphasis on the importance of the U.S. Constitution is concern about ideas advocated by the Democratic Socialists of America, Rep. Erin Houchin, R-Ind., confirmed.
