FreeSpeech.org Pushes Petition Against the Decision!

FreeSpeech.org (at http://freespeech.org) is circulating a petition on the Internet to have the Supreme Court decision (to allow corporations to do unlimited politicking and electioneering) reversed by means of a Constitutional amendment. You might want to go to their website and sign their petition, which reads as follows:

WHEREAS, the First Amendment to the United States Constitution was designed to protect the FREE SPEECH rights of people, not corporations;

WHEREAS we, the People of the United States of America, reject the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in Citizens United;

WHEREAS, the United States Supreme Court’s ruling in Citizens United v. FEC will now unleash a torrent of corporate money in our political process unmatched by any campaign expenditure totals in United States history;

WHEREAS, the United States Supreme Court’s ruling in Citizens United v. FEC presents a serious and direct threat to our democracy;

Now hereby be it resolved that we the undersigned voters of the United States call upon the United States Congress to pass and send to the states for ratification a constitutional amendment to restore the First Amendment and fair elections to the people.
