It's an attack on our democracy. In a <br /> system where one person, one vote is supposed to be the rule, huge <br /> corporations are having an outsized influence <br /> I support the Reverse Citizens United Amendment to reverse the effects <br /> of the anti-democratic Citizens United decision. Elections must be <br /> determined by voters - not deep-pocketed corporations <br /> I am in favor of Hawai'i County Council Resolution 263-12, which urges <br /> the United States Congress to pass and send to the states for the <br /> ratification of a constitutional amendment to reverse Citizens United v. <br /> Federal Elections Commission (2010) and to clarify that corporations are <br /> not entitled to the constitutional protections or "rights" of natural <br /> persons. <br /> Mahalo nui loa, <br /> Ana Kahoopii <br /> PO Box 2714 <br /> Kamuela, <br /> HI 96743 <br /> 808 887 2022 <br /> Comm. 3 <br /> Ref.To: r Gt <br /> Ref.
