WASHINGTON, D.C.—On the last day of oral arguments, the Supreme Court will hear Donald Trump’s claims of presidential immunity in Trump v. United States. This case will determine if the U.S. Department of Justice can move forward with prosecuting Trump for crimes committed during his presidency, including his efforts to overturn the 2020 election on January 6, 2021.

Stand Up America’s Founder and President, Sean Eldridge, issued the following statement:

“The Supreme Court’s right-wing majority has already handed Trump a temporary victory by stalling this case for months, allowing him to delay accountability for his criminal attempts to cling to power. The American people deserve a Supreme Court that does not hesitate to declare that no one is above the law, including a former president.

“With so much at stake for our democracy, the Supreme Court should rule swiftly and decisively in this case. Accountability delayed could mean accountability denied.”
