It is time for California to repeal its ban on federal food stamps for people with a prior drug-related felony conviction. This policy leaves low-income Californians who have served their time hungry and desperate and communities less safe.

We are circulating this petition to tell Marco Rubio and other Republican men across the country that we will not stand for this war on women's reproductive rights. If they are going to continue to push their radical agenda, we are going to push them right out of office.

Unlimited, often secret campaign contributions from billionaires and corporations have undermined the core of the democratic process. If we do not act, money will continue to flood into our election process and will overwhelm the voices of voters. This corrosive system can result in a government for the highest bidder, rather than of, by and for the people.

The Supreme Court's ruling in Citizen's United vs. the Federal Election Commission(2010) basically states that when it comes to campaign contributions, corporations should have the same rights as individuals. Getting corporate money out of politics is critical to restoring democracy and the power of our vote. Please join us by signing this petition to Congressman Cleaver to co-sponsor a Constitutional Amendment to overturn Citizen's United!

Unlimited and often secret spending from billionaires and multinational corporations has been a disaster. If we do not act, money will continue to inundate our elections and overwhelm the voice of voters. This corrosive system can result in a government for the highest bidder, rather than of, by, and for the people.

Co-sponsor amendment to overturn Citizens United.

Unlimited spending from billionaires and multinational corporations is drowning out the voices of individual Americans time after time. They fund attack ads, distortions, and lies that are repeated endlessly through the media, with an aim to confuse and misdirect the electorate. Their purpose is simple - to ensure policies that increase profits, often at the expense of individuals, are propagated. This corrosive system is the antithesis of a government of, by, and for the people.

As of July 2, Sixteen US States have adopted a resolution to pursue an amendment to the Constitution of The United States, which would overturn the Citizens United decision. This petition is to urge California Congressman Xavier Becerra (34th District) to support a similar resolution in California by embodying the voice of his constituents. We have all been affected by the Citizens United decision, which has allowed unlimited funding to influence elections of government representatives at every level of government. This money is contributed in the shadows, with no accountability, so the people are unable to even discern whom amongst the super rich and multinational corporations are sponsoring a specific candidate. President Lincoln, in his Gettysburg Address, proclaimed that "government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth". The Citizens United decision represents a barrier to this ideal, creating a system where government is sold to the highest bidder, while the common person's voice is silenced. This nearly insurmountable barrier must be eradicated through a Constitutional Amendment, for the very preservation of our Democracy.

The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Citizens United v. FEC, permitting unlimited corporate spending on elections, is ruining our democracy. Money is not speech, and human beings -- not corporations -- are persons entitled to constitutional rights. We need government of, by, and for the people -- not government for the highest bidder.
