It’s time for cities to stand up for the rights of human beings

March 12, 2012

Move to Amend Olympia is meeting with the Olympia City Council to take forward a resolution to demand Congress abolish corporate “personhood.” This concept stems from the 125-year Supreme Court history of corporations assuming progressively more “human rights.” At present, corporations have claimed First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and 14th Amendment rights through a series of Supreme Court rulings.
