The disproportionate influence of corporations and other wealthy groups limits the rights of citizens to participate in their government.
With increasing shamelessness, Congress has acted against the interests of the many citizens to increase the advantages of the wealthy and powerful few.
While members of Congress become increasingly preoccupied with funding their re-election campaigns, those who contribute are gaining more influence.
We petition The President to act to limit the influence of money on Congress.
Limit lobbyist expenditures, and make them more transparent.
Limit large donations to election campaigns, and make all donors public.
Restrict the influence of wealth in Congress, and thereby restore the inalienable right of all natural persons to alter their government.
