Inaction on climate change. Unfair taxation and income inequality. Government shutdowns. Immigrant detention. What do all these issues have in common? A common root: the influence of money on politics.
On Saturday April 26th,
Common Cause CA, UCLA Chapter of the American Constitutional Society, and MOVI will be hosting a forum, 28th Amendment National Roadshow, exploring recent developments, including the McCutcheon v. FEC ruling, that have opened the floodgates to money in our political system and what we can do, including amending the constitution, to build a truly equitable democracy.
The day will feature great speakers including Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks, Jeff Clements, author of Corporations Are Not People, a sneak peek of the upcoming film Pay 2 Play: Democracy’s High Stakes, and training around how to have your voice heard.
We’ll also hear about some exciting initiatives here in California including SB 1272 and AJR 1.
We hope you can join us and help spread the word. Together we can make a difference.
