Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States limiting the pardon power of the President.

House Joint Resolution 77 proposes an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would place specific legal limits on the president’s power to grant pardons and reprieves. If passed, the president would be prohibited from pardoning themselves, family members, administration officials, or paid campaign employees. Additionally, the measure would invalidate any pardon issued for a corrupt purpose or for crimes coordinated with the president, ensuring that the executive clemency power cannot be used to shield the president’s inner circle from legal consequences.
