Deliver for Bernie

Thank you again for joining the campaign to overturn Citizens United. With your help, we have gathered over 100,000 signatures.

Just as we saw a grassroots movement rise up to stop SOPA/PIPA, ordinary people across the country are joining together against Citizens United. There are simply too many issues at stake in 2012 for our democracy to be bought by the highest bidder. Stephen Colbert has done an excellent job educating the public about the absurdity of this ruling.

Now is the time to take action.

Senator Sanders proposed a powerful constitutional amendment to reset the scales of power and give voice back to the people. He needs your help to gather allies in the Senate.

Sign up to deliver the Citizens United constitutional amendment petition to your Senator.

We will provide you with all the petition signatures from your state and work to coordinate your action with any other interested DFA members in your area.

Join the movement to overturn Citizens United. Deliver Bernie Sanders' petition.

We know that the people united will defeat Citizens United.

Thank you for all that you do.

-Jay

Re: Citizens United

Thanks for the joining the campaign to overturn Citizens United.

But please don't stop now. This isn't going to be a quick or easy fight. Wall Street is going to do everything they can to keep Citizens United the law of the land.

We're putting together a grassroots campaign to beat them because people power is the only thing that can beat big corporate money -- it's the only thing that ever has.

Please take a moment now and ask your family, friends and neighbors to join Sen. Bernie Sanders in overturning Citizens United --
