Each year, educational institutions which receive federal funding must provide programming on the US Constitution around September 16th, Constitution Day. This provides Move to Amend an opportunity to get into schools and make connections with educators, administrators, and students. We encourage Move to Amend supporters and affiliates to reach out to their contacts in schools as well as make new contacts with local schools and offer to provide materials or present material to students yourself!

Although numerous organizations and individuals numbering in the hundreds of thousands have expressed their opposition to the TPP, a deal was reached on October 5 and the full details released on November 5.  

Negotiated in secret among trade representatives for 12 nations and over 500 multinational corporations, this agreement will affect over 40% of the global economy -- yet is completely removed from any semblance of a democratic process.

Once the formalities are achieved, and the president announces he will sign, the deal becomes public and Congress has 60 days to vote it up or down—no amendments. Washington insiders believe the earliest the deal can move forward is April 2016.

Tell your members of Congress to vote NO on the Trans-Pacific Partnership!

In the tradition of the mighty Populist Movement, Move to Amend's experienced and acclaimed speakers will be stopping in towns and cities around the country, spreading the word about the campaign to amend the constitution and inspiring action!

Despite the uproar from every corner of the country, Congress approved the fast track for the Trans-Pacific Partnership, meaning the horrible deal will sink or swim on an up or down vote from Congress with no debate.

2016 Presidential candidates are already visiting New Hampshire, soliciting support for their campaigns due to the state having such an early primary.

We have the opportunity to make ending corporate personhood and getting big money out of politics central to the next national election.

Goals this Year

Our speakers give rousing one hour talks telling the story of the American creation myth and the Constitution as it pertains to Corporate Personhood and illegitimate but legal corporate constitutional rights, followed by about an hour of facilitated discussion / Q and A. 

Since it’s now fair to say that Move to Amend has caught on like wildfire on the local level, it’s time to kick it up a notch! Let’s amplify and multiply the power of all that great local organizing by building deeper organizational connections on the regional scale.

Organize in Your Home Town for a Constitutional Amendment to Overturn Citizens United and Limit Campaign Contributions and Corporate Power
