Virginia 8th and 11th Congressional District Democratic Conventions Pass Resolutions against Citizens United v. FEC and Influence of Money in Politics
Resolutions on overturning Citizens United v. FEC and combating the undue influence of money in politics passed today at the Virginia 8th and 11th Congressional District Democratic Conventions. The resolutions call for the Constitution to be amended to establish that: (1) Corporations should not be entitled to the same Constitutional rights in our elections as people and should have only the powers and rights granted to them in state and federal law; and (2) Money is not speech so federal and state governments have the power to fairly regulate, without infringing the freedom of the press, any political contribution or spending. Northern Virginia Move To Amend helped prepare the resolutions and strongly advocated their passage.
