Constitutional Amendments With Cross ‐Ideological Appeal?
Walter OlsonThe National Constitution Center recentlyconvened three ideological “teams” (libertarian,progressive, andconservative) to see whether they could come up with ideas for amending the constitution that might draw consensus support from all three teams. (If this idea sounds familiar, it ’s because the NCC last year convened three teams to think about how to bolster the guardrails of democracy; more on the resultshere.)This time the libertarian team consisted of Ilya Shapiro, Timothy Sandefur, and Christina Mulligan.

ATP stores energy in the chemical bonds that hold its three phosphate groups together—the triphosphate part of its name. In the human body, ATP powers processes such as cell signaling, muscle contraction, nerve firing, and DNA and RNA synthesis. Because our cells are constantly using and producing ATP, each of us t...
