Several parties have submitted amici briefs to the U.S. Supreme Court, urging the high court to weigh in on the execution of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment and former President Donald Trump’s eligibility to run for office again, and put a definitive end to the 60-some challenges that have been filed across the country.
