Petition to Abolish Prison Slavery

Hello,
Would you like to sign the Petition to Abolish Prison Slavery?

Below is a copy of the Thirteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution.
This is the Amendment we were told abolished all slavery after the Civil
War in America.
The problem is that there is an EXCEPTION for slavery hidden between
two commas within the Thirteenth Amendment.



PETITION TO ABOLISH PRISON SLAVERY

I hereby sign the Petition to Abolition Prison Slavery in support of
changing the Thirteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution so as
to remove the offensive exception for "slavery…as a punishment for
crime…" with the return of citizenship, labor and human rights for
all.

Thirteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution (1865):

"Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, EXCEPT AS A PUNISHMENT FOR
CRIME WHEREOF THE PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN DULY CONVICTED, shall
exist within the United States, or any place subject to their
jurisdiction". (emphisis added)

So as to read:


Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude shall exist within
the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction".
