The New Pledge Project exists to encourage a renewed dedication to — and a — deeper understanding of the Constitution of the United States. We aim to:

• Encourage Americans to reaffirm their commitment to our Constitution

• Inspire people to adopt and actively use The New Pledge in their civic and community life

• Inspire thoughtful civic engagement

• Promote constitutional literacy

Our mission is not political. It is foundational. The Constitution belongs to all of us.

For generations, Americans have recited pledges that symbolize unity and shared purpose. The New Pledge Project offers a refocused expression — one that centers the Constitution itself as the anchor of our national identity.

This project is not about erasing tradition. It is about restoring focus.

The pledge most Americans recite today has changed over time, including additions that were not part of the original civic expression of allegiance. The New Pledge Project invites Americans to return to a pledge rooted in the very Constitution itself — not symbolism, not religious language, but the foundational framework of our democracy.
