Overturn Citizens United the Correct Way, Now with HJR 48!
Dear Members of the United States House of Representatives and Senate,
We are pleased to present you with this petition requesting this action:
We urge you to do everything in your power to support and pass HJR 48, House Joint Resolution 48, The We The People Amendment to the US Constitution, as the best way to overturn Citizens United, to allow for the proper regulation of money in politics, corporations, and artificial entities.
We are pleased to present you with this petition requesting this action:
We urge you to do everything in your power to support and pass HJR 48, House Joint Resolution 48, The We The People Amendment to the US Constitution, as the best way to overturn Citizens United, to allow for the proper regulation of money in politics, corporations, and artificial entities.
Why is this important?
Our government and political process has been captured and corrupted by powerful corporate special interests. The system has been rigged and it will continue to spawn more Trumps, hate, divisiveness, income inequality, privatization, austerity, militarization, climate chaos and death and destruction until we pass HJR 48, the We the People Amendment, which already has 53 co-sponsors in Congress!
HJR 48 is the only amendment bill introduced in Congress that ends both corporate personhood AND money as speech, allowing for the proper regulation of money in politics (bribes). It is rapidly gaining bipartisan support in the House, and MUST now be introduced in the Senate (for extra credit call or write your Senator). HJR 48 will restore OUR constitution and OUR rights and powers back to We the People ONLY! It will undo the Citizens United ruling of the Supreme Court. With your help, we will over-rule the court and legalize democracy, and then kick the pirates and weasels out of OUR government, in time to save our dying planet!
Big money in "pay to play" politics is at the root of our social and environmental problems. This is consistently cited as the primary issue of concern by moveon.org members. To learn more or to join this campaign go to movetoamend.org. You can also add your organization to the growing list of coalition partners at this link. Let's win the good fight on the issues that matter to each of us by making this the cornerstone of our social and environmental justice movements. Lets put a positive end to our shared feelings of hopelessness and despair. Thank you!
