On January 21, 2010, with its ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, the Supreme Court ruled that corporations are persons, entitled by the U.S. Constitution to buy elections and run our government. Human beings are people; corporations are legal fictions.
We, the People of the United States of America, reject the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in Citizens United and other related cases, and move to amend our Constitution to firmly establish that money is not speech, and that human beings, not corporations, are persons entitled to constitutional rights.
The Supreme Court is misguided in principle, and wrong on the law. In a democracy, the people rule.
". . . corporations have no consciences, no beliefs, no feelings, no thoughts, no desires. Corporations help structure and facilitate the activities of human beings, to be sure, and their 'personhood' often serves as a useful legal fiction. But they are not themselves members of “We the People” by whom and for whom our Constitution was established."
~Supreme Court Justice Stevens, January 2010

The American Revolution was the first time a European colony gained independence. The new nation, based on the principles of a republic, inspired many successive revolutions across the globe.
There was widespread acceptance, if not support, for the British monarchy in the beginning. The King or Queen was not only the head of government and the Church of England and had command of one the most powerful military forces in the world, but benefited from the widespread belief that they possessed the “divine right” to rule.
The modern LGBTQ+ movement is dated to the Stonewall Riots, a spontaneous rebellion led by queer patrons – many of them people of color and transgender – against police harassment at the Stonewall Inn in New York City in 1969.
The struggle for the dignity and rights of LGTBQs+ individuals and “against a system that criminalized their love lives and outward expression” dates to the 1950’s. The dominant religious and social narrative labeled them as perverse, sinful or mentally ill. They were victims of discrimination and violence. Being outed could mean imprisonment, loss of employment, or institutionalization. Criminalized love lives and outward expression.
Stonewall represented a collective resistance to be silent and shamed, but as human beings who sought not merely to be tolerated but who demanded liberation.
Personal transformation connected to Stonewall sparked the birth of a mass movement composed of political and cultural elements.

Move to Amend is a coalition of hundreds of organizations and hundreds of thousands of individuals committed to social and economic justice, ending corporate rule, and building a vibrant democracy that is genuinely accountable to the people, not corporate interests. We call for an amendment to the US Constitution to unequivocally state that inalienable rights belong to human beings only, and that money is not a form of protected free speech under the First Amendment and can be regulated in political campaigns.
