Let us vote whether money is speech

The Supreme Court's decisions to let the rich buy as many politicians as they want is an outrage!

Pass SB 1272 to demand a Constitutional amendment that overturns Citizens United and McCutcheon-- and that says once and for all that corporations aren't people, and money isn't speech.

Why is this important?

The Supreme Court has gutted more than one hundred years of campaign finance laws and given corporations and the rich even more power over our government -- with the outrageous rationale that limiting spending on elections limits speech.

If our democratic system of representative government is to survive, these deeply damaging rulings must be overturned. SB 1272 will put a proposition on this November's ballot that will let California voters demand that Congress create a constitutional amendment to do so. Tell the California Senate to pass it now!
