Dear Lee,

The Supreme Court has just announced its decision in Citizens United v. FEC
and they gave corporations the same political speech rights as you and I. In
a narrow 5-4 decision, the Roberts Court overturned the 60-year-old ban on
corporate spending in elections.

We are calling this what it is: a corporate takeover. We have a plan to
press Congress to act. That plan begins with you.

 <http://action.endthemoneychase.com/site/R?i=G76kZ6DMmPeZ4au-bB8H4g..> Sign
our petition to Congress today: The Fair Elections Now Act is the best way
to respond to the Roberts Court blatant disregard for democracy.

>From health care to financial reform, it's clear that corporations already
have too much influence on Capitol Hill and the Roberts Court just gave them
even more. The Fair Elections Now Act would return elections to real living
and breathing people, not corporations. 

 <http://action.endthemoneychase.com/site/R?i=GOuNbkMu1F18RtvBhc0-pg..> We
will deliver these petitions directly to Congress. They need to hear from
you that they shouldn't think small. Sign the petition today.

Unless we act, Congress will do as little reform as they can get away with.
We need your help to ensure that politicians hear the message that elections
below to all of us, not just big money donors and corporate special
interests.

Tell Congress we need to change the way Washington works.
