A Petition to Support the Saving American Democracy Amendment
Sen. Bernie Sanders has proposed a constitutional amendment
that would overturn the Supreme Court decision in a case called
Citizens United vs. FEC.
The Saving American Democracy Amendment states that:
* Corporations are not persons with constitutional rights equal to
real people.
* Corporations are subject to regulation by the people.
* Corporations may not make campaign contributions or expenditures.
* Congress and states have the power to regulate campaign finances.
