To the Constitution of the United States
Author: David Walker, Former Comptroller General of the United States
Total debt held by the public shall not exceed 120% of gross domestic product (public debt/GDP) as reported by the Treasury Department, absent a formal Declaration of War in accordance with the provisions of this Constitution. Effective no later than the end of Fiscal 2040, total debt held by the public shall not exceed 90% of GDP absent a formal declaration of war or due to an unexpected national emergency with a 60% vote by both houses of the Congress and the concurrence of the President. Any such waiver vote must occur for each fiscal year the limit would otherwise be violated. The Congress shall enact legislation to operationalize this provision within a year of ratification of this Amendment. This legislative provision must include gradual and continual reductions in annual public debt/GDP levels between the date of enactment and Fiscal 2040. Any member of the Senate or House who is in office in a year that this Amendment is not fully complied with shall not be eligible for re-election.
Article V, U.S. Constitution
To the Constitution of the United States
The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which, in either case, shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress; provided that no amendment which may be made prior to the year one thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any manner affect the first and fourth clauses in the ninth section of the first article; and that no state, without its consent, shall be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate.
Our initial approach to ratification on or before December 31, 2028:
Call on House Speaker and Senate Majority Leader to publicly announce that there will be an up or down vote on these two amendments on or before September 17, 2025, Constitution Day.
Between now and September 1, 2025, initiate a public information and education campaign to gain public support for these amendments.
Lobby for passage of this Amendment.
Hold the vote. If it does not pass, develop a campaign to educate the public and gain support for the Amendment among the citizens of the United States.
