Treason is defined as carrying out war against the United States and giving help to the nation's enemies. Treason is a very serious crime. In order to be convicted of treason, two witnesses must testify to the same story, and/or the accused must make a confession in a courtroom.

Why do you think the Founders so carefully defined and limited the act of treason?

Nearly everything we see in the U.S. Constitution was in response to an abuse by the British government.

This is why the founding fathers wanted to define and limit the act of treason.
