Team,

Here in California, we’re doing everything we can to fight unchecked corporate influence — from going after Wall Street banks for blatantly breaking the law, to suing an organization backed by the Koch Brothers for failing to disclose its largest donors.
Ten years after Citizens United, it’s clear more than ever that we need to curtail corporate influence in our politics. Team, join me in calling an end to this shadowy special interest cash today:
Together, let’s show the Republican-backed special interests that this is our America — not Wall Street’s.
