Utah’s gone full tyrant mode! Time to politely tap our reps on the shoulder and remind them they’re just borrowing power from us—We The People. This website is here to help you get the justice and financial recovery you deserve, with a dash of peaceful rebellion!

We live in a representative form of government. Section 1983 of Title 42 of the United States Code was originally enacted as part of the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871, also known as the Civil Rights Act of 1871. Its primary purpose was to enforce the provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment, providing a legal means for individuals to seek redress for violations of constitutional rights. The law allows citizens to file lawsuits against individuals acting under state authority who violate their constitutional rights. Although initially aimed at combating the actions of the Ku Klux Klan, the law was intended to protect all citizens from state-sponsored violations of their rights. For many years, the law was underutilized, but it gained prominence in the 1960s as a tool for addressing various civil rights issues. 

In Monroe v. Pape, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that government officials could be sued under Section 1983. The case involved Chicago police officers who conducted an improper search without a warrant, violating the Fourth Amendment rights of the individuals involved. Although the lower courts dismissed the lawsuit, the Supreme Court reversed the decision, holding that actions taken "under color of" state law, including those by officials acting under state authority, could lead to liability under Section 1983. To succeed in a Section 1983 claim, plaintiffs must prove that the conduct occurred under state law and that it deprived them of constitutional or federal statutory rights. 

This website is intended to help the citizens receive just compensation for the violation of their rights. Remember, the government can "take" something without "just compensation."
