Sign Petition to Rebuild the Dream!

January 21st marked the two-year anniversary of the infamous Citizens United Supreme Court ruling. That case gave corporations like Exxon or Bank of America approval to spend millions of dollars buying elections.

It is already happening, and it is wrong.

Changing Supreme Court decisions can take decades. A better alternative is to pass a constitutional amendment.

A new campaign called United for the People is underway to do just that. And, since we don’t have time to waste, this effort needs support from the
very highest levels. Today we're petitioning President Obama to support a constitutional amendment to boot big money out of elections.

Will you sign our petition to the president?

Support from President Obama would give a big, early boost to the movement for an amendment. The president has already condemned Citizens United as a bad ruling. If the president comes out in
support of the amendment, it will inspire millions of people to believe in the idea, and a lot of members of Congress will follow, too.

Amending the Constitution will require the support of 2/3 of both the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, and then must be ratified by 3/4 of the states. That is a big hill to climb, but it isn’t impossible. State legislators will also follow the president’s leadership when he backs a constitutional amendment.

So let’s get started off right.

Will you add your name to this historic effort?

Throughout U.S. history, whenever something in our democracy hasn’t been working, we’ve amended the Constitution. We’ve amended the
Constitution to protect and extend the right to vote. Even basic rights we take for granted, like freedom of speech, are from amendments.

This is another moment to make history and form a more perfect union together.
