This is BIG NEWS. The U.S Court of Appeals just handed down a decision that basically says unregulated, endless amounts of money in politics can be a very bad thing. Of course, we already knew that. You have been fighting this trend of “money = speech” and “corporations = people” from the beginning. And there’s a sure-fire way to fix our campaign finance system: Reverse Citizens United. With this victory, now is the time to double-down on our commitment to get shady money out of our elections. Click here if you support reversing Citizens United. According to a poll from the New York Times, 85 percent of the American people believe that the way political campaigns are funded needs either "fundamental changes" (39 percent) or "a complete rebuild" (46 percent). That’s in big part because of Citizens United. Since the decision, groups are ignoring the regulations that we still have -- which has lead to unprecedented growth in unregulated and undisclosed spending. This campaign finance system is corrupting our democracy and selling it to the highest bidder (likely the Koch brothers). Click here to stand up to demand Citizens United be reversed. ca.pelosiforcongress.org/page/m/10201a25/665e6076/288d96b7/600965e/1581639375/VEsE/ Thanks for your support, Nancy
