SEC: Don't Let Corporations Hide Their Political Spending!
We need a constitutional amendment to kill Citizens United for good — but a new move by the Securities and Exchange Commission will put another nail in its coffin.
The SEC is the only federal agency with the power to really rein in corporate money in politics. Now it's considering a move to require corporations disclose how they're spending money to affect elections, and we need to tell it to make this requirement a reality!

Why is this important?
We've seen the level to which corporations will sink to rig elections and skew issues like climate change and health care. Campaign finance reform is where we'll see real change.
