Republican lawmakers in Pennsylvania, Arizona and Georgia have made a bold and attention-grabbing move by proposing legislation aimed at excluding President Joe Biden from the 2024 general election ballots in their respective states.
This significant development comes in the aftermath of the Colorado Supreme Court’s recent 4-3 decision to bar former President Donald Trump, who is considered the GOP frontrunner for the 2024 presidential nomination, from appearing on the state’s primary ballot.
The Colorado court based its decision on the 14th Amendment, which prevents officials engaged in insurrection from holding future office.
Aaron Bernstine of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, Cory McGarr of the Arizona House of Representatives and Charlice Byrd of the Georgia House of Representatives jointly issued a statement outlining their plan.

The lawmakers argue that if the Colorado court can exclude Trump based on its interpretation of the law, then Biden should face a similar exclusion. They believe this countermove serves to highlight what they perceive as the absurdity and potential partisan bias in the Colorado court’s decision.
The joint statement criticizes the Colorado court’s ruling as an “absurdity” and emphasizes the urgent need for legislation to remove Biden from the ballot in Georgia, Arizona, and Pennsylvania.
The lawmakers point to the Democrats’ arguments for removing Trump, such as his alleged involvement in insurrection and corrupt family business dealings, and assert that these arguments can be applied to Biden. They specifically highlight Biden’s immigration policies, which have faced criticism from Republicans advocating for tougher border security.
The press release stated: “Democrats’ insane justification to remove Trump can just as easily be applied to Joe Biden for his ‘insurrection’ at the southern border and his alleged corrupt family business dealings with China.” The lawmakers expressed their determination to fight against what they perceive as a threat to the electoral system and underscore their objective of showcasing the “absurdity” of the Colorado court’s decision.
This move by Republican lawmakers signifies a strategic response to legal actions seen as targeting prominent political figures and highlights the escalating polarization in American politics. It reflects the willingness of politicians to employ unconventional and provocative tactics in defense of their own interests.
The press release emphasized the Republican lawmakers’ commitment to resisting what they describe as efforts to undermine the democratic process, setting the stage for a potentially contentious and high-stakes political battle in the lead-up to the 2024 elections.
The bills seeking to prevent Biden from appearing on the ballot are the brainchild of Republicans in each state legislature. These lawmakers argue that they are employing a tactic reminiscent of Democrats’ efforts to challenge Trump’s eligibility.
The Colorado Supreme Court’s decision set a precedent by disqualifying a candidate based on the interpretation of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which focuses on insurrection or rebellion against the United States.
The move is not merely a legal counteraction; it underscores the intensifying tit-for-tat dynamic between Republicans and Democrats, raising concerns about the potential consequences for the integrity of the electoral process and the exacerbation of political divisions in the nation.
Legal experts and political commentators are closely watching the unfolding situation as Republicans strategically deploy legislative measures in response to what they perceive as Democratic attempts to undermine constitutional principles and voters’ choices.
The maneuver highlights the increasing polarization and ideological battles between the two major political parties, potentially setting the stage for a protracted and contentious political landscape.
As lawsuits challenging Donald Trump’s candidacy have been filed in over 25 states, the legal and constitutional implications of these actions are becoming more pronounced. This tit-for-tat approach carries the risk of escalating tensions and deepening mistrust in the electoral process. If this trend continues, it could lead to an unprecedented crisis where numerous states, regardless of political affiliation, grapple with the exclusion of major candidates from the ballot, further exacerbating divisions and threatening the very foundation of the nation’s democratic principles.
