ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) “We the People” is the beginning of the United States Constitution and it’s also the rallying cry for a coalition hoping to pass a 28th amendment.
The “Move to Amend” coalition introduced House Joint Resolution 48 in January of 2017, in hopes to end corporate rule.
The movement started in California to end corporate person-hood, which they believe gives corporations rights solely intended for human beings.

“I’ll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one”. Robert Reich, economist.
