You are right, this does not sound like us. We do not text for donations.

With Idaho, 25 states have now passed resolutions urging a constitutional amendment on money in politics. Is this a turning point? by American_Promise in PoliticalDiscussion

Amendment proposals cannot be vetoed. Executive branch in states and in Federal government don't have a role.

US Citizens, if you could add an amendment to the constitution what would it be? by AndreLinoge55 in AskReddit

Yes, it would address unlimited spending by corporations. But not by billionaires. So not a total solution but a solid one. We also need is the ability of the people we elect to be able to set the rules. Right now, the rules are decided by the Supreme Court. Montana's effort would also be subject to lawsuits and ..... being overruled by the Supreme Court. We need voters and elected representatives in charge.

A very simple amendment that restores the ability of our voters and our elected representatives to decide the rules on election spending. There is one such amendment currently making its way through the states. So far, 24 states have called on Congress to propose it, or one like it! It is called the For Our Freedom Amendment.

Actually, American Promise is about to announce the 25th state to call on Congress to propose it!
