overturn Citizens United
overturn Citizens United
The Issue
It's clear to any aware, thinking American that our democracy is being purchased wholesale by a small number of billionaires with private agendas and that their flood of money is corrupting our government. It is further clear and proven that the Court's belief that Congress would require disclosure was always a ludicrous pipe dream. And the Constitution reads "We the People" not "We the Corporations" or "We the Rich People." And furthermore, money is a possession not speech. And the First Amendment says free speech not purchased speech. It should be clear to the Court by now that the low regard in which you are held by the American public was well-earned by the worst decision since Bush v. Gore. We the people demand that you overturn Citizens United.
