"Dear shambert,
Big news on our push to stop Citizens United from handing our democracy over to big corporations and special interests. A group of Senators and House members are teaming up and renewing our push to overturn the effects of Citizens United as we hit this important election year!
There’s me and Sherrod Brown, of course, plus other pro-democracy Democratic Senators like Mark Begich, Kay Hagan, and Tom Udall -- and a couple of awesome challengers, Bruce Braley from Iowa and Gary Peters from Michigan.
I don’t need to tell you why Citizens United belongs in the Dumpster of Bad Ideas. Unlimited outside special interest spending? Giving big corporations a pass to buy our elections? No disclosure at all? It’s a mess. My colleagues and I are teaming up, like some sort of anti-special-interest Justice League. But we can’t do it if we don’t each bring our most passionate supporters to this new effort.
Please join me and other Democrats to fight against Citizens United in 2014! We’ll be in touch with more on our new effort soon. And thanks for being part of this.
Al"
