Sanders on Thursday proposed a constitutional amendment to overturn a Supreme Court ruling that allowed unrestricted and secret campaign spending by corporations on U.S. elections. The first constitutional amendment ever proposed by Sanders during his two decades in Congress would reverse the 5-to-4 ruling in Citizens United vs. the Federal Elections Commission.  In that infamous decision almost two years ago, justices gave corporations the same First Amendment free-speech rights as people. Watch him introduce the amendment. Take our poll. Join more than 32,000 people and sign the petition.

John, I did the short poll and signed the petition ~ to me, Citizens United is the single-most damaging USSC decision ... maybe ever ~ certainly within my lifetime ~ and what is so deeply misguided in the decision is that corporations were handed expanded rights over individuals because there IS a limitation on what an individual can spend per election cycle ~
