"Over the course of a lifetime, we face only a few moments where the decisions we make and the actions we take will shape our history for years to come," the former president added. "This is one of them. If we give our freedoms away after 250 years, we might never get them back. It is up to all of us who believe in the promise of American democracy to stand up, speak out, and show that our nation still belongs to We the People."
