Rep. Adam Schiff introduces constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United

Washington Rep. Adam Schiff on Wednesday introduced a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision, which helped usher in a new era of big money in American elections.

"Our democracy is not for sale. We must stop the flood of dark money from drowning out the voices of everyday citizens," the California Democrat said in a statement on Twitter. He said such an amendment would"restore power to the American people."By a 5-4 ruling, the high court in 2010 swept aside a ban on independent spending by corporations and unions in candidate elections, saying the restrictions amounted to censorship.

The Democrats are pathetic!! They act like they care but they always want to change the rules when they are not winning or don't get their way! The Supreme Court ruled and now they want to change the Constitution! Un Fucking Believable!

Trying to rig another election. The dossier, phony fisa warrants, spying, that wasn’t enough in 2016 so lets try the courts now.

realDonaldTrump WhiteHouse Someone needs to USHER this pile of Schiff out the front door and take the leaders of the HouseJudiciary with him. It would at least clear the air a little bit in the House and save taxpayer money.

Make 2020 years of Amendments. This one and finish the ERA vote, giving equal Rights to Women.

Schiff, Nadler,Cummings, Pelosi, and that black woman should be arrested. Arrested by the Secret Serve for harassing the President. If found guilty all should be imprisoned for 10-25

And because we 'have' checks and balances, the judicial system will punt you backwards.

I want to change us to a Constitutional Monarchy and coronate Pres Trump as King !!!

Yes!!! 👏👏👏
