But there is hope for change.
800 cities and towns, and 20 states are calling for a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United. That represents 141 million Americans, 46% of the U.S. population. Popular support is overwhleming -- the debate over the idea of overturning Citizens United should be over.
Now it’s time to win, period.

Vast majorities of the American people want the government to protect clean water, act on climate, lower drug prices, raise the minimum wage, hold corporate criminals to account, deliver health care to all and more, but action is stalled because those demands conflict with the interests of a corporate class superpowered by the Citizens United decision.
