[ [link removed] ]Rally at the Supreme Court in support of the Democracy For All Amendment

HAPPENING NOW: a rally at the Supreme Court featuring Senate Democrats
reintroducing the Democracy For All Amendment.

 

PFAW Member,

When the Supreme Court’s conservative majority opened the floodgates for
Big Money in our elections with its Citizens United ruling, it caused
massive harm to our democracy. By restricting lawmakers' ability to limit
spending by corporations and secret money special interest groups, the
amount of Big Money in recent elections has skyrocketed to previously
unfathomable levels. BILLIONS of dollars are poured into each election
cycle and it's a safe assumption that the 2020 election cycle will be
record setting.

But it doesn't have to be this way -- and it shouldn't.

[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition today to urge Congress to PASS the Democracy For All
amendment and overturn decisions like Citizens United>> 

Just today, Senate Democrats reintroduced the Democracy For All amendment
at a rally with activists outside the Supreme Court. And just recently New
Hampshire became the 20th state to signal support for an amendment to
address the harm caused by Citizens United and related cases.

There is more energy than ever to see that this amendment passes in
Congress!

The amendment would allow Congress and the states to set commonsense rules
for the raising and spending of money in our elections, and to distinguish
in doing so between people and corporations. The measure provides the
important clarification that nothing in the amendment should be construed
to abridge the freedom of the press. The amendment also rejects the
current Supreme Court’s misguided interpretation that the only basis for
campaign finance regulation is to address corruption in the form of quid
pro quo bribery.

[ [link removed] ]We must fight back against the flood of secret money – sign the
petition!>>

With your signature (and continued pressure on members of Congress), we
can get secret money OUT of politics and put power back in the hands of
the American people.

Thank you,

- Zach, PFAW
