Since Citizens United, corporations and the billionaires behind them can spend without limit to elect the candidates they want, and much of that money flows through groups that never have to say where it came from. The ruling rests on two ideas most Americans reject: that a corporation has the same constitutional rights as a person, and that spending money is the same thing as speech. The result is a system where a handful of donors can drown out millions of voters, and where the people who write the checks get the first call after the election. A court ruling this deep can only be undone by the Constitution itself. The We the People Amendment (H.J.Res. 54) would do it: constitutional rights belong to people, not corporations, and money is not speech. Resistbot is asking the candidates on your 2026 ballot to co-sponsor and vote for the We the People Amendment to overturn Citizens United.
