Support a constitutional amendment to end Citizens United
Elon Musk PACs have spent $17M on the Wisconsin Supreme Court election. He’s also donated $3M, and giving voters $100.

Elon is currently suing the state and would have cases ruled on by the winner.

Billionaires are a direct threat to democracy.

Ten years ago, Wisconsin approved unlimited political spending. Now, as spending for its Supreme Court race surpasses more than $80 million, some campaign reformers are wondering if the state is reach...

@shaheen.senate.gov just reintroduced the Democracy for All Constitutional amendment to overturn the disastrous Citizens United decision.

We can't keep letting billionaires like Elon Musk prove that our broken campaign finance system needs to be reformed.
Extreme, misguided court rulings like Citizens United have flooded our elections with dark money and special interests that drown out the voices of citizens. Today, I’m introducing a Constitutional amendment to overturn the decision and return the power to the American people.

GET MONEY OUT OF POLITICS
Billionaires don’t have a constitutional right to own your government.

Today @khanna.house.gov and I unveiled the Abolish Super PACs Act to get money out of politics and restore democracy for, of, and by the people.

We must make it harder for billionaires + corporate interests to buy our politics.

Notorious political strategist, Lee Atwater, in 1981 explaining how the GOP can be more subtle with its racism. Stop using the N-word. Instead, talk about government cuts because racist white voters would assume (often erroneously) that this would hurt Black people more than them. Sound familiar?

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

New post: State Rep Brett Barker has acknowledged he made a “rookie mistake” when he authorized the distribution of a right-wing Christian pamphlet to all of his Iowa House colleagues.

But he hasn't disavowed the contents of the weekly “Bible Study.”

We need to amend the constitution to reverse the devastating effects of Citizens United. Everyone needs to start talking about this.

We MUST overturn Citizens United if we want to bring power back to the people. Corporate donors have controlled our government for too long. It's time to work on taking it back.

Check out our mission statement. Know that we can't make it happen without your help!

Hey, an occasional reminder:

Should you be fighting fascism here in the US? Yes, you should!

Are you the one who decides how best you can do that? Yes, you are!

Should the people who decide that you're not doing it right (i.e., the way they want you to) fuck off into the sun? Yes, they should!
