1. Email your Congress members to urge them to pass the Fair Elections Now Act.
If we do not speak up, they will surely not act. Keep up the pressure.

The Supreme Court has just given big corporations even more influence in our electoral process. The Court has overturned decades of precedent to make sure corporations have the same political rights as living, breathing people.

It's time for Congress to act swiftly and powerfully to make sure voters--not corporations--have control of our elections.

Act now - pass the Fair Elections Now Act.
