Hi, all you Waccos. By now, most of you know about Citizens United, the U.S. Supreme Court decision that, strangely, made it official that corporations are people and money is a form of speech. You've also probably noticed what a bad effect corporate money has had on American politics at all levels. And maybe you've heard about Move to Amend, the nation-wide citizens group that's trying to turn back this obviously bad situation with a proposition in the Nov., 2014, ballot, calling for a U.S. Constitutional Amendment to roll back Citizens United.

Locally, Move to Amend - Sonoma County is working on raising 25,000 signatures on a petition to put this amendment on the ballot. Similar efforts are happening all over the country and, if people get involved, there's a good chance we'll be able to turn back some of the negative influence that mega-corporations have on the lives of Americans. To find out how you can get involved, call 707-234-8014 or email [email protected]. Also, there's a public meeting at the Arlene Frances Center, 99 - 6th St., Santa Rosa, at 10AM on Feb. 1. I hope to see you there. The people who are working on the local Move to Amend are local folks like you, and they need all the help they can get.
