Dumping Citizens United


Three out of four people voted to block Citizens United in Missoula MT. 
There's talk about amending the constitution to stop Citizens United. I don't think it needs to go that far, though it would be good. I think that the issue of foreign money coming into US politics should be reason enough to shut down Citizens United.  
 it should be a crime to donate money anonymously. And local  legislators should be passing laws blocking corporate money and anonymous money. 
Congressman Ellison argues that the process of engaging in the effort to pass a constitutional amendment will be good for progressives. 
I'm getting back to the conference. 
best,
