Lesson 20: The Road To Remedy-The Attack on Grand Juries w/ Tactical Civics
We, the People, possess a fundamental right to hold our government accountable. This principle is enshrined in the Declarations or Bills of Rights of several states, which affirm that government officials are answerable to the people at all times. For instance, the Virginia Declaration of Rights articulates in Section 2 that ‘all power is vested in, and consequently derived from, the people; that magistrates are their trustees and servants, and at all times amenable to them’ (Virginia Const. art. 1, § 2).
However, a pressing question arises: how can ordinary citizens ensure that government officials and institutions uphold justice and adhere to the law? Moreover, how do we hold the government accountable when we seemingly require the government’s permission to do so?
The Answer is: the Citizen Grand Jury
