We, the People, no longer recognize the legitimacy of the United States Government in its present form. We declare the formation of a People’s Union, to act in the interest of justice, equality, and survival. We pledge ourselves to the creation of a new democratic system, one rooted in ecological sustainability, economic fairness, and the dignity of every person. In witness thereof, we affix our names, not as subjects to a failed state, but as free citizens, determined to secure a future worthy of humanity.
