Question - Constitution Related Concerns Discussion

The two most important issues at the Constitution were representation and power. Recently these are again at the forefront as we experienced what many historians call a constitutional crisis with the expansion of presidential power versus the power of Congress, and the failure or limits of constitutional checks and balances. We have also seen challenges to the rule of law (ex. Jan 6 capitol), and debates over constitutional interpretation (Texas limits on abortion rights). Clearly our Constitution remains critical to who we are.
