You received an email recently asking you to call or email your legislators requesting their support for the Joint Memorial calling on Congress to pass a constitutional amendment to the states to overturn the effects of the U.S. Supreme Court's disastrous decision - Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. Joint memorials have now been introduced in both the State Senate and House. It's now up to us to rally support for SJM 8002 (Senate) and HJM 4001 (House).
A hearing has been scheduled by the Senate Government Operations Committee on SJM 8002 for Tuesday, February 5, 10:00 a.m. in Cherberg Building, Hearing Room 1. You can express support for SJM 8002 on the Senate comment page HERE, Comment on HJM 4001 HERE. SEND YOUR SENATOR AND REPRESENTATIVES a personal letter, Email, or call the free hotline number 1-800-562-6000 and leave a message "I support (SJM 8002) (HJM 4001) and ask that you support it too."
Even better do all of the above and join us at the hearing on Tuesday, if at all possible.
It is especially important for the following committee members to hear from their constituents.
If you live in a committee member's district please contact him/her. If you know anyone who lives in the districts identified with the committee members below, please forward this email message and have them call, write or comment on the joint memorials.
