Move to Amend is calling for an amendment to the US Constitution to unequivocally state that inalienable constitutional rights belong to human beings only, and that money is not a form of protected free speech under the First Amendment and should be regulated in political campaigns. House Bill HJR 48 supports these goals and is legislation that MTA lobbied to have introduced. HJR 48 had 75 cosponsors in the last Congress!
