urge Congress to pass legislation counteracting the SCOTUS decision in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission.

Created by T.W. on December 04, 2011

This petition is an effort designed to request the Obama Administration to urge Congress to act against the dangerous precedent established in the Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, 558 U.S. 08-205 (2010) decision. The ruling in this case has created a provision allowing big business to further saturate political campaigns with the power of money. This allows corporations -- both domestic and foreign -- to play a leading role in the American voting process. This decision takes the power of the vote away from the American people and places it in the hands of wealthy businesses.
