Protect the Presidency from Financial Conflict

We the undersigned respectfully petition Congress to take proactive steps and protect the Office of the President from violations of the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution (Article I, Section 9, Clause 8). Congress should, by resolution, make clear to President (Elect) Donald Trump that he must divest his business assets. Further, that if he does not divest or otherwise place his assets in a true blind trust, Congress will regard ANY dealings between his financial interests at home or abroad and any entities owned or controlled by foreign governments as potential violations of the Emoluments Clause unless he can prove they were arm's-length transactions.
