Members in Congress have introduced Legislation to finally Overturn the Citizens United Decision and get Big Money out of Politics.
Citizens United was decided in 2010, and Election Spending has Exploded, because it allowed Massive Corporations and Special Interest Groups to Corrupt our Elections.
For too long, Billionaires and Corporations have Bankrolled Candidates who Support their Interests over those of the American People.
On the First day of the 116th Congress, Congressman Ted Deutch (D-FL, 22nd District), Congressman Jim McGovern (D-MA, 2nd District), Congressman Jamie Raskin (D-MD, 8th District), and Congressman John Katko (R-NY, 24th District), introduced a Bipartisan Constitutional Amendment to get Big Money Out of Politics and Restore Democratic Power to the American People.
The Democracy for All Amendment affirms the Right of States and the Federal Government to pass Laws that Regulate Spending in Elections, Reversing the concentration of Political Influence held by the Wealthiest Americans and Large Corporations capable of spending Millions of Dollars in our Elections. This Legislation comes days before the Ninth Anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court’s disastrous Ruling in the Citizens United Case.
