End corporate rule to end wars and occupations
End corporate rule to end wars and occupations
Thursday, April 4 | 5pm PT, 8pm ET
Register HERE for the virtual program
Endless US wars and occupations are driven by the political and economic power of US corporations. Hundreds of US military bases around the world provide those corporations “security” to access foreign markets, cheap labor and raw materials. Resisting one war, occupation, weapon system or sweatshop article of clothing at a time will never result in peace, justice and a livable world.
We must fight individual corporate evils AND end corporate rule in all its forms.
The good news is, we can do both! Join us April 4, to see how.

Corporate Hypocrisy
As millions of Americans gather around their screens this weekend to watch the Super Bowl, we can't help but notice the glaring hypocrisy of corporate giants who spend exorbitant amounts on flashy TV ads while neglecting their responsibility to pay their employees a fair and livable wage.
This corporate greed is unacceptable, and it's time to take a stand against it. That's why Move to Amend is calling out this hypocrisy and urging you to join us in supporting HJR 54, the We the People Amendment, as a crucial step towards ending this cycle of injustice.

51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade
As we reflect on what is the 51st anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision, we are reminded of the continuous struggle to protect our fundamental constitutional rights and freedoms.
The erosion of women's right to privacy and self-determination are being stripped away, meanwhile SCOTUS continues to rule in favor of ever expanding "inalienable" rights for corporations.
Join us in taking a stand for We, the People.

I'd rather dig my own grave than ask for money.
John Fioretta has been a proud supporter and volunteer on Move to Amend's Law and Research Committee for several years.
In a world where corporate power and money influence our lives in profound ways, he has seen first hand the harm that Corporate Constitutional Rights and the idea of Money as Free Speech can cause. It's why he's reaching out to you with a short message that may raise an eyebrow or two.

The Paralysis Continues
In the hallowed halls of the U.S. House of Representatives, there's a troubling void that's casting a dark shadow over our democracy. For more than two weeks, the GOP-controlled House has been without a speaker, rendering one of America's key branches of government effectively paralyzed. The consequences of this leadership vacuum are not just political; they are threatening the very foundation of our democracy.
This current predicament marks the longest period of congressional disarray since 1962, when it took a staggering 55 days to elect a speaker. It's a stark reminder of the urgent need for change, a need that the Move to Amend community recognizes and has been tirelessly advocating for.

End the Paralyses!
In the midst of political uncertainty and turmoil, our government has come to a standstill. The halls of the U.S. Capitol echo with silence, and it's not because of an unforeseen crisis, but rather a leadership crisis.
As we write to you today, there is no House Speaker to guide our legislative branch. This absence of leadership is a wake-up call, an urgent reminder that it's time for We the People to step up and demand the action we deserve.

INVEST a few dollars toward legalizing democracy and a Constitution that only belongs to We The People, not the corporations!
Will you join me in recruiting our Congress member to co-sponsor the #WeThePeople Amendment?
I'LL JOIN YOUWhy I support Move to Amend
Hi friends!
What's the number one issue you care about? It can be anything -- ie voter rights, BLM, climate change, abolishing ICE, etc. If you look close enough, you will see corporate personhood fingerprints and traces of dark money all over it. The great corporatization of Congress...it's not a Conspiracy, its our sad reality. Our Representatives no longer represents We the People, they only represent their Corporate Donors' best interest.
And while there are many great orgs and movements out there addressing corruption and the many other subsequent issues we are facing, only Move to Amend is addressing the two root issues: Money in Politics AND the absurdity of Corporate Personhood Rights.
This will require a LOT of public education, political engagement, and persistence -- especially when there's a lot of private interests that will try to stop us using their deep pockets -- but it CAN be done if we all play our part: volunteer, spread the word, and INVEST a few dollars toward legalizing democracy and a Constitution that only belongs to We The People, not the corporations!
Will you help me raise money to get the undue influence of big money and corporate interests out of our government by setting up a monthly donation to Move to Amend on this page?
