Move the 119th Congress to Amend Campaign

Posted on Action Campaigns by Jennie Spanos · February 20, 2025 11:27 AM

Our campaign goal is to secure 100 co-sponsorships for the #WeThePeopleAmendment before the end of 2026.

To achieve this goal, we suggest starting with the closest Representative to you and recruiting constituents in that District to hold a meeting with their target Representative (or their legislative staff). Sign up below to get started! 

Read the Dear Colleague Letter from Rep. Jayapal, Lead Sponsor for The We the People Amendment here.

Also, check out the Press Release: Jayapal Introduces Constitutional Amendment to Reverse Citizens.

If you do not know who your representative is, go to: Find Your Representative | house.gov 

Here's what you'll need to do:

  1. Choose which Representative you're focusing on (see below for the target list, or if your Rep isn't on the campaign target list you can elect to lobby them instead)
  2. Recruit 3-5 constituents to join you for the meeting.
  3. Schedule the meeting (a Move to Amend national organizer will join you for this meeting)
  4. Organize a prep call to prepare.
  5. Hold the meeting and ask your Representative to co-sponsor. 
  6. Follow up
  7. If they don't sign on, time to escalate your tactics! We will help you plan an appropriate action from bombarding their office with phone calls, to organizing a letter-writing campaign, to dropping at their local office or (if they have one) business with Move to Amend petitions! We will work together to decide on any appropriate escalation. 

We have provided you with all the tools and resources needed as well as organizing support. You will find the easy step-by-step instructions linked at the bottom of the page.  Expect that this effort will take 2-5 hours a week. 

Sign up below, then get started!

Will you help push your Rep to co-sponsor the #WeThePeopleAmendment?

Posted on Move the 119th Congress to Amend Campaign by Jennie Spanos · February 20, 2025 11:25 AM

The #WeThePeopleAmendment was introduced in Congress last week.

This amendment makes clear that only human beings have Constitutional rights (not corporations) and that money is not speech so that campaign spending can be regulated, and big money can be eliminated from the political process.

This critical amendment is necessary to move forward on just about every other issue you care about, from climate change to election integrity to police brutality and human rights!

Our goal is to get at least 100 co-sponsors on the #WeThePeopleAmendment -- so we need at least 3-5 constituents in each district to hold a successful lobby meeting... sign up below!

The meetings will all be virtual and online and will take about 20-30 mins. Move to Amend organizers will help you prepare for the meeting and work with you to ensure it is a success!

What is needed to participate:

  • High speed internet and computer with video capability (if this is a challenge for you, let us know and we will see if we can make it work)
  • A passion for passing the #WeThePeopleAmendment to end corporate rule and get big money out of politics
  • 1-2 hours to prepare your statement during the meeting and join a prep call with Move to Amend organizers and other volunteers 
  • 20-30 minutes during a weekday (between 9am-5pm ET) for the meeting with your Representative and/or a member of their staff (to be scheduled by their office)

Can we count you in to join the meeting?

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.
