People For Member,
The billions of dollars of Big Money that have poured into U.S. politics since the Supreme Court’s disastrous 2010 ruling on Citizens United v. FEC have had a devastating effect on our democracy.
It is long past time to overturn that and related rulings and bring an end to the overwhelming political dominance of ultra-wealthy individuals and corporations so that our elected officials can better represent the people they serve.
Sign the petition now to demand that the House of Representatives pass the Democracy For All Amendment (H.J. Res. 1) and overturn Citizens United! >>
The day after the Biden-Harris Inauguration, House Democrats reintroduced the Democracy for All Amendment. This moment of renewal and reset with a new administration is the right time to continue building momentum to finally do away with the horrendous legacy of Citizens United and other related rulings that opened the floodgates to billions of special-interest dollars pouring into our elections.
The movement to get Big Money out of politics has been amassing traction in states across the country for nearly a decade. It’s time for Congress to lead and contribute its unequivocal backing by passing this common-sense amendment to the Constitution!
Add your name TODAY to urge the House to immediately pass the Democracy For All Amendment! >>
Now is our time to strengthen our democracy by reining in the corrupting influence of Big Money and putting the power in our democracy where it truly belongs: with We the People.
In unity,
Sarah, People For the American Way

Radical Right extremists are trying to turn back the clock on a century of advances in civil rights, women’s rights, workers’ rights, the social safety net and more… they’re waging an all-out assault on the fundamental pillars of our country – democracy, checks and balances, a fair and independent judicial branch, and core values like fairness, equality, and justice for all.
