Labor Day is a terrific opportunity for Move to Amenders to make personal and issue connections with members of labor unions.

Many fundamental rights and protections of working people (e.g. the weekend, 8-hour work day, collective bargaining, end of child labor, employer-based health coverage, workplace safety) came into being because working people organized powerful movements that created positive change.

Since Move to Amend is also organizing a powerful movement to create real change -- our constitutional amendment to abolish corporate rights and money considered free speech -- connecting with labor unions and the working people they represent makes perfect strategic sense. 

In the tradition of the mighty Populist Movement, Move to Amend's experienced and acclaimed speakers travel the country, spreading the word about the campaign to amend the Constitution and inspiring action!

Our speakers give rousing 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. 

This year we need to secure 60 House of Representatives Co-Sponsors of House Joint Resolution 48 (the We the People Amendment) and have the amendment introduced in the U.S. Senate with 10 co-sponsors.

Campaign Introduction Video

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.

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

Since the Move to Amend coalition launched in 2010, our grassroots activists have successfully passed dozens of community resolutions declaring public support for a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United v. FEC by establishing that a corporation is not a person, and money is not speech!

January 20, 2012 marked the culmination of Move to Amend's Occupy the Courts campaign, and was the day democracy went viral in America!
