Wise men have explained the threat of concealed $$$ to our Democracy.
If you want to oppose the wholesale purchase of elections by the wealthy, please join and speak out:
Sign and send the petition: This would be a huge blow to Citizens United:
It will take a constitutional amendment to undo Citizens United entirely,
but there’s one federal agency that has the power to rein in corporate money in
politics in a big way right now. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) can require that corporations disclose how they’re spending money to affect elections—and the SEC is taking public comments on just such a move right now. Sign and send the petition to the SEC: Don’t let corporations hide their political spending. Campaign finance reform is the issue that affects all other issues: Climate change, civil rights, workers rights, health care, education … you name it. The Supreme Court keeps giving already-powerful corporations new ways to influence politicians in all of these areas. And we’ve seen the levels to which corporations were willing to go to win in 2010 and 2012, when they drowned the airwaves in attack ads. Sign and send the petition now: Don’t let corporations hide their political spending. Keep fighting, Rachel Colyer, Daily Kos |
P.S. Please help keep Daily Kos strong by chipping in $3. |
