This is Mafia style bribery!! ********** [172045:042916] m.D., Waterbury, CT 'Citizens United' is a lie. Please hear your constituency, and rid this country of this abominable decision! ********** [234128:042816] R.O., Redding, CA Citizens United + SuperPACs + Super Delegates = Super Corrupt. If you can't see that you have a real problem and should't try to be a lawmaker. ********** [141611:042816] . ., Los Angeles, CA Citizens United is a direct attack on our most basic freedom: the right to elect our representatives. Please overturn it. ********** [052640:042816] W.S., Santa Monica, CA Californians need the opportunity to express an opinion of arguably the worst decision in the history of the Supreme Court. ********** [015713:042816] j.m., Huntington Beach, CA This Act has corrupted our politics, our democracy, more than anything else ever has and it needs to be overturned now! ********** [002403:042816] P.L., Stinson Beach, CA Please. ********** [232814:042716] O.d., Victorville, CA One person, one vote. ********** [224606:042716] r.s., Pasadena, CA Citizens United needs to be over turned. This is the USA not some third world dictatorship. Do your job and get this overturned now! ********** [213812:042716] E.M., San Juan Capistrano, CA Citizens United (so-called) permits greedy selfish vested interests to purchase their will elections, permitting essentially bribery to take place. This needs to STOP, or there will be no more America, only a haven for parasitic businesspeople to compromise everyday people's health, lives, and environment. ********** [203605:042716] V.M., Walnut Creek, CA GOVERNMENT FOR THE PEOPLE NOT FOR GREEDY BIG MONEY! ********** [190704:042716] S.S., San Diego, CA I am counting on your leadership. ********** [184107:042716] j.w., Oroville, CA A corrupt Supreme Court decided that somehow Corporations are actually people. Never, in our history, have we had such insanity issuing from the Supreme Court nor have we had so much dirty money pouring into the coffers of politicians. We, here in California, need to make a statement of our feelings about Citizens United and pass the Overturn Citizens United Act. Everyone in the state needs to pay attention to this or we are going to be reduced to a Corporate-owned government with no rights accruing to the real people. Please, please pay attention and encourage your legislators to pass SB 254. ********** [183544:042716] M.M., Portola, CA Giiveaways to the filthy rich, entitled at the expense of the People is criminal and will destroy our Democracy. Maybe that is our fate, but it is tragic. ********** [153115:042716] M.W., Emeryville, CA This may be the single most important step in restoring our democracy. ********** [150238:042716] T.H., Fort Jones, CA To make votes count and to get money out of elections it is vital to "overturn citizens united". ********** [140446:042716] D.P., Sacramento, CA We must stop the 'bleeding' of individual expression by overwhelming special interests. ********** [120942:042716] P.W., Union City, CA Citizens United and therefore money has too much of a role in who gets on the ballot of public elections ********** [101455:042716] M.S., South Lake Tahoe, CA I want our country to be a democracy not an Oligarchy ********** [091641:042716] H.W., Greenview, CA I urge you to support SB254. We need to get big money out of politics. The out sized influence o unregulated corporate money distorts our election process. We deserve to know who and how much money is spent trying to buy our elections. We individual taxpayers are not having our voices heard. The government is not working for me. ********** [083233:042716] O.T., Big Bear City, CA Thwart plutocracy. Empower democracy. Overturn Citizens Untied by passing SB 254. ********** [082802:042716] L.S., Clearlake, CA IT IS HIGH TIME WE GET THIS DONE TO GET ANY SEMBLANCE OF A DEMOCRACY BACK!!! ********** [082209:042716] E.B., San Francisco, CA Corporations are NOT people. Stop the madness, the buying of our electorate, and the destruction of the democratic process. Overturn Citizens United and get dark money out of politics for good. ********** [053021:042716] D.B., Santa Rosa, CA The decent and honest American people have had enough of being represented to the world by a corrupt political system which strives to undermine our nation's progress toward a deeper genuine national morality, which will highlight a tacit conspiracy to destroy democracy and solidify permanent oligarchy. The only way to save this country must begin by overturning the rule of corrupt big moneyed private interests--big money privilege. ********** [042603:042716] e.w., Berkeley, CA Citizens United is the most powerful subversion of actual democracy - and just one more tool used by the tiniest fraction of this society (elites) to blunt, thwart, misdirect, repress, and counter the functioning of Actual Democracy - the definition of which is "One Person, One Vote". Simple. It is the seminal/preeminent philosophical tenet of the system of Democracy Itself. A six year old understands the moral soundness and reason of this tenet (so I KNOW you do...) ********** Go Back
