Amend to Suspend Corporate Personhood
PDA’s Amend to Suspend Corporate Personhood (A2S) Action Group was formed in response to the January 2010 Supreme Court decision (Citizens United v Federal Election Commission), which allows unchecked spending and disproportionate influence on our elections by extending the free speech rights of corporations, equating money with speech. The A2S Action Group actively promotes, supports, and works toward Constitutional amendments, legislation, and judicial rulings that will remove the designation of “person,” with its attendant rights, from corporations and will reserve the Constitutional rights afforded to persons solely for individual human citizens.
