The wealthy 1% influence election decisions through their immense wealth. The presence of colossal contributions funneled through Super PACs, social welfare organizations, politically active nonprofit organizations and unions violate numerous articles of the U.S. Constitution that proclaim officials must be elected by the people.
The renowned saying "We the People" is being contorted into "We the Corporations".
Political and economic favors are traded between wealthy benefactors and political officials.
The wealthy 1% use the candidates as puppets while they pull the strings. If we continue down this path our once strong nation will be reduced to one that enacts legislation to solely benefits big business.
We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens who urge our leaders to implement legislation that addresses the problem of excessive campaign finance.
