Reversing Citizens United
I was inspired by the work of DUer Omaha Steve, who has rallied DUers together to donate to ActBlue in support of Bernie Sanders Campaign, so I asked Omaha Steve to help me deliver a way that I believe we can all support an issue that is embraced by both candidates - the reversal of "Citizens United."
Bernie may be the candidate best known for having a strong stancs against the Citizen's United ruling, but we can't forget that the ruling, and the film that sparked the original issue, both came at Hillary's expense. The symbolic image of Hillary being president during the overturn of CU must be enormously alluring to her campaign. Clinton's name would forever be associated with another historic moment in US politics.
So, as DUers of all stripes, opinions, and strongly held candidate preferences, I'm hoping we can set aside what makes us different and focus on one of the things that brings us together.

Why the Wolf PAC? Success counts.
So far, Wolf-PAC legislation has been adopted in 4 states (and has legislation in play in as many more):
Vermont
On March 21, 2014, the Vermont Senate passed JRS 27, a Wolf PAC-backed resolution, in a bipartisan 25 to 2 vote.[27] On May 2, 2014, the Vermont House passed the resolution, making Vermont the first state in the nation to call for an Article V convention concerning campaign finance reform.[28]
California
On March 20, 2012, a Wolf PAC-backed resolution was introduced in the California State Assembly, but was voted down in the Judiciary Committee.[29] On January 30, 2014, the California State Assembly became the second state lower chamber to pass Wolf PAC's bill calling for a constitutional convention. On June 23, 2014, California became the second state in the nation to pass Wolf PAC's resolution.[30]
Illinois
On December 3, 2014, the Illinois Senate voted on SJR42, which passed the needed 3/5ths majority by one vote, 72 to 40, becoming the third state to call for the convention.
New Jersey
A resolution to call for a constitutional convention to overturn Citizens United was introduced on 11 August 2014. It passed the Senate on 18 December 2014 and the Assembly on 23 February 2015.
Here's a sample resolution:
