Call on Congress to Overturn 

Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission

Help Get 160 Members of Congress to Co-Sponsor an Amendment


In 2010, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission that corporations have a “right” to spend unlimited money influencing elections. Spending by corporations and the ultra-wealthy has flooded our elections with unprecedented amounts of money, much of it secret.
With 15 states and nearly 500 cities and towns calling for an amendment, it’s time for your senators and representative to get on the record.
This summer, we working to get 160 members of Congress to co-sponsor a constitutional amendment. It’s the 160 Summer! It’s time for government of, by and for the people.
Be part of the movement to take back our democracy.

Sign the Petition to the United States Congress

I call upon my elected representatives in the United States Congress to pass and send to the states for ratification a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court’s disastrousCitizens United ruling, take democracy off the auction block, and preserve constitutional rights for people, not corporations.
