President's Welcome

Society President Miller sitting in a mini Oval Office holding a coffee cup and American flag

On behalf of the 3rd. Amendment Defense Society I welcome you to our website and I commend you for your interest in American Constitutional history and our natural rights. The Society implores you to stand with us in these times of Constitutional tribulation to ensure the defense of our right to be free from quartering, as guaranteed by the 3rd. Amendment. While some may see the 3rd. Amendment as a historical oddity, only in existence because of the somewhat strange British policies at the founding of our Republic, we see the true beauty and necessity of the 3rd. Thank you for visiting. - Jared Paul Miller, Society President
