A Santa Clara County Ballot Initiative for November 2014

Join MTA National Spokesperson David Cobb and California State Senator Jim Beall

Move To  Amend (MTA) is a national movement to pass a 28th Constitutional Amendment so that only human beings, not corpora-tions, are endowed with constitutional rights and that money is not equivalent to free speech.  The local ballot initiative will send a strong message from Silicon Valley that our democracy and our economy exist for We the People.  In addition to an advisory vote on the 28th Amendment, the local ordinance will establish an annual Democracy Day to engage local residents in dialogue and action around the issues of money as speech and corporate constitutional rights.

We need your support with signature gathering and contributions to head our Nation in a new direction.  Hundreds of initiatives and resolutions have already passed around the country, usually garnering 70-80% of the vote.  We will be gathering 75,000 signatures through May of 2014 for the November 2014 ballot.
