The Supreme Court was about to handdowntheinfamousCi3zensUnitedrulingthatopenedthedoortonearlyunlimitedand unmonitored spending in elec3ons.They sensed the country was outragedabout it and ready to get toworkfixingthisstateofaffairs.
Move to Amend launched as a simpleone-pageonlinepe33onsaying,"Doyouagree that corpora3ons arenotpeople?Doyoubelievemoneyisnotfreespeechand so poli3cal spending should beregulated?"Six years, 402,000+ people, andhundreds of successful ballot ini3a3ves,reso lu3ons , endorsements , andgrassroots groups later... we know wewereright.Thiscountryisreadytowipethe nox ious idea of "corporatecons3tu3onalrights"offthebooks.
Theproblemandsolu3on…SomepeopleknowtheCi3zensUnitedruling was grounded in the idea thatcorpora3ons are people and thereforehave inalienable rights under thecons3tu3on--justlikehumanbeings.
