Dear MoveOn member,
Next month, for the first
time ever, the U.S. Senate will vote on a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens
United.
This. Is. Huge. And it could change this entire
election.
Citizens United isn't just one of the worst Supreme
Court decisions ever—it's one of the least popular. Seriously—80 percent of
Americans oppose it. Even 72% of Republican voters think the Supreme Court
got it wrong.1
That's why almost every
politician claims that they don't like Super PACs. But when there's a
high-profile vote like this, every senator will need to put up or shut up.
Senators who have the nerve
to vote against overturning Citizens United will be putting a massive
political target on their back—if we have a big enough war chest to really hold
them accountable.
We're aiming to raise
$200,000 to launch a hard-hitting ad campaign right after the vote, going after
senators who vote to uphold Citizens United. Can you chip in $3?
Forty-eight senators have
said they support the amendment to overturn Citizens United. A bunch of
the rest haven't said which way they'll vote.
If we can reach our
fundraising goal before the vote, undecided senators will know what's coming
and feel enormous pressure to vote the right way.
So here's the plan: Before
the vote, we're going to launch a full-court press with phone calls, petitions,
and news conferences to get as many senators as possible to vote the right way.
And we'll keep track of who supports the bill and who doesn't on a public website
so everyone knows.
Then, after the vote, we'll
launch a hard-hitting ad campaign going after senators who vote the wrong way.
Your money will allow us to run a big enough ad campaign to make sure our
message is heard even in a crowded election year. Can you chip in $3?
Thanks for all you do.
–Mark, Victoria, Justin,
Manny, and the rest of the team

I would say make more of an effort to get the De Jure Grand Juries together than a Corrupt Cabal Congress as the 25 People in a Grand Jury Can Indict ANY Government Official, even the President!
I have counted only 3,225 members, and 3,133 counties in the U.S., but with 25 Grand Jury members in Each County only is 78,325 People, which is less than what took down Prohibition.
And $3 from each of them is only $234,975, so getting a Grand Jury participant to Take Down a Corrupt Society is More Important than months taken to get a Constitutional Amendment to NOT Pass in only 13 of the Corrupt States!
So if you can NOT get your Constitutional U.S. Senator in office then how are you going to get a Constitutional Amendment passed?

Power of the Grand Jury - In a stunning 6 to 3 decision Justice Antonin Scalia, writing for the majority, confirmed that the American grand jury is neither part of the judicial, executive nor legislative branches of government, but instead belongs to the people. It is in effect a fourth branch of government "governed" and administered to directly by and on behalf of the American people, and its authority emanates from the Bill of Rights, see United States -v- Williams.
FULLY CONSTITUTED STATES
49 States have constituted the Administration of the Common Law Jury in all counties.
