Louis,
Later this month, the Supreme Court could hand down a decision in a case many have called “the next Citizens United.”
February 24 is the Court’s next decision day and if the conservative majority rules broadly in McCutcheon v. FEC -- and in favor of powerful, moneyed interests, as is their penchant -- they could deal a massive blow to the few commonsense campaign finance restrictions we have left.
All the polls, as well as elections where the issue has been on the ballot, are clear: Americans want big money and its corrupting influence OUT of politics -- not more of it in, like the Court could allow in McCutcheon.
Our coalition of pro-democracy organizations and activists is gearing up to make sure there’s a grassroots response, in cities and towns across the country, to the Court’s McCutcheon decision the day it is handed down (on Feb. 24 or after).
Please sign up now to attend an event near you, or if there’s not already an event scheduled in your area, to help organize one.
Click here to indicate your interest on the Money Out / Voters In campaign site now, and organizers will be in touch with you leading up to the decision day.
Thank you to our friends at Public Citizen for leading this effort.
And thank YOU for continuing the fight to restore Government By the PEOPLE.
Sincerely,
Ben Betz, Online Engagement Director
