MrJM sez, “The Supreme Court’s ruling in Citizens United v. FEC allows corporations and unions to pour unprecedented amounts of money into elections.
Now more than ever, when Congress acts, we won’t be able to know whether it was because of reason or judgment… or only because of the need for campaign money.
The system is broken, and we need to act.”
