Fix Charleston First: Accountability, Floods, Housing & Audits | [Robert Beers] for Congress

 SECTION 1: WHY I’M RUNNING

"For too long, Washington politicians have ignored our needs. They send billions overseas while Johns Island floods, teachers can’t afford rent, and potholes crack our axles. I’m running because Charleston deserves a representative who listens—then fights."

SECTION 2: THE PLEDGE

1. 4 Town Halls, Every Year
"I’ll come to you—whether you’re in Awendaw, Folly Beach, or Hollywood. Bring your ideas, complaints, and solutions. No scripts, no filters."

2. Stop the Flooding, Fund the Research
"I’ll secure federal dollars for pump stations, marsh restoration, and partner with MUSC/College of Charleston on climate resilience tech."

3. Lower Housing Costs + Upgrade Homes
"Let’s incentivize affordable duplexes/townhomes, repair public housing mold/AC units, and cap rent hikes near military bases."

4. Repair Roads + Bridges NOW
"No more ‘temporary fixes’ on Maybank Highway. We’ll use federal grants to rebuild roads right—with local contractors."

5. Annual Audits: Your Money, Transparent
"I’ll publish online reports tracking every federal dollar: Did it fix floods? Create jobs? You’ll know."

SECTION 3: LOCAL ROOTS, REAL SOLUTIONS

"I’ve sat in your living rooms after hurricanes. I’ve heard from veterans waiting 6 months for VA appointments. This pledge comes from you—and I’ll never stop fighting to make it reality.
Because Charleston shouldn’t have to beg for what we deserve."

29th Amendment: Direct Democracy with Citizen Oversight & Judicial Integrity

 

The 29th Amendment – “People’s Sovereignty & Accountability Act” (Modernized)

Section 1: Power from the People

1. All federal laws, treaties, and major executive actions must undergo a national referendum if 3% of registered voters petition within 90 days.

2. Congressional votes are initial approvals; final passage requires a popular majority vote via secure national digital vote.

Section 2: Citizen Override & Constitutional Change

1. 5% voter petition can trigger a binding referendum to override any federal law or policy.

2. Citizens-initiated amendments: If 10% of voters petition, any constitutional amendment bypasses Congress and, upon 55% majority vote, is directly embodied in the Constitution.

Section 3: Citizen-Integrated Governance & Transparency

1. Legislative committees must include randomly selected citizen panelists with equal voting power alongside lawmakers.

2. Public hearings and votes must be streamed live, with AI highlighting corporate affiliations of members.

Section 4: People’s Justice & Oversight Mechanisms

1. Citizens may petition (8%) for a temporary referendum review of Supreme Court rulings; if approved, Congress must enact corrective legislation.

2. Public Corruption Tribunals:

   • Citizen juries preside,

   • No presidential pardons,

   • Verdicts and penalties subject to no further appeal.

Section 5: Economic Democracy

1. Corporations that harm public welfare can be dissolved or restructured via citizen referendum.

2. Mergers, bailouts, and large trade pacts require public approval by simple majority.

Section 6: Citizen Accountability Officers

Each district elects a Citizen Officer with authority to:

• Investigate or detain public officials on credible corruption allegations,

• Freeze assets during investigation,

• Collaborate on election integrity.

Section 7:** Judicial Oversight Council**

• A nonpartisan Judicial Oversight Council (JOC) composed of citizens, judges, and former jurists will:

  1. Review impeachment trials for fairness, rejecting political vengeance.

  2. Audit Citizen Tribunals for procedural integrity.

  3. Ensure Supreme Court referendums are grounded in constitutional fidelity, not political impulse.

Section 8: Enforcement & Consequences

1. First Offense: Civil penalties and mandatory public restitution.

2. Second Conviction: Suspension from office, civil-service assignments, loss of benefits.

3. Third Conviction: Permanent prohibition and potential incarceration; assets forfeited.

Section 9: Finality & Supremacy

This amendment overrides any conflicting federal or state laws or precedents. The sovereign will of The People, legally expressed via this framework, is final, binding, and inalienable.

---

✅ What’s New: Judicial Oversight

• Establishes a Nonpartisan Judicial Oversight Council to monitor fairness across all people-enforced legal processes.

• Ensures referrals for referendum or tribunal actions comply with constitutional standards.

• Prevents abuse or politicization of the system by adding a constitutional check on citizen-led enforcement.
