Write and send a personal email to your U.S. senators: Vote to repeal Citizens United

[Jefferson23]

The midterm elections are less than two months away, and once again we are seeing record-breaking sums of corporate money being spent to manipulate voters.

Supreme Court decisions like Citizens United and McCutcheon opened up the floodgates for the Koch brothers to spend unlimited sums, and without a constitutional amendment we will see more awful Court rulings in the future.

In the past four months, 279,588 people have signed our Daily Kos petition—calling on the U.S. Senate to pass a constitutional amendment overturning Citizens United, which has been our most successful petition to date. A vote in the Senate on this amendment is now scheduled for Monday, September 8.

50 senators (all Democrats & independents) have pledged to support Senate Joint Resolution 19, but we are targeting Republicans and the five undecided Democrats (Mark Pryor, Mary Landrieu, Joe Donnelly, Tim Kaine & Mark Warner.) On Tuesday, over 30,000 Daily Kos members who live in a state with one or more undecided senators sent a quick e-mail urging their support.
