This petition is to urge the US Congress to pass and send to the states for ratification a constitutional amendment to reverse the Supreme Court's ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission and to restore constitutional rights and fair elections to the people.
Why is this important?
Citizens United was the US Supreme Court's ruling that says corporations have the same rights as people. This means corporations can contribute as much money as they wish to elected officials and causes. This means that corporations have more power than people. This ruling is a direct threat to the future of our democracy.
