Mahalo for your service and Aloha !! Rosemary on Mariners Ridge ********** [184716:052015] D.B., Miami, FL Please do something - the Citizens United decision is destroying our democracy. ********** [144421:082914] b.r., Camdenton, MO Listen to us, Missourians in your district. Vote to over turn Citizens United Be a kperson of integrity not a tea party fanatic. ********** [000637:080614] D.D., Biddeford, ME The amount of money poured into local and regional political races is already obscene, given the economic conditions in the country, and in many instances overwhelms the ability of the people to make fair and honestly informed choices. ********** [204003:080514] B.G., Pittsburgh, PA Thank you Rep Doyle. Your constant support for rational, sensible actions is MOST appreciated. ********** [114002:080414] B.F., Tetonia, ID Will you not become a cosponsor of HJ Res 119 ? ********** [115129:080314] L.Z., Doylestown, PA Corporations are not people! We need you to be on the side of the PEOPLE who you represent, not the corporations working to maximize their profits while using up OUR public roads and destroying our environment. Stand up for PEOPLE not greed! ********** [105656:073014] A.J., Sarasota, FL The Citizens United decision by our Supreme Court had nothing to do with our Constitution and everything to do with activist judges doing the bidding of the powerful corporations that are ruining our democracy. The majority of Americans oppose this decision and it's time for our so-called representatives in Congress to do the right thing and support a Constitutional Amendment to reverse the decision and establish once again that the constitutional liberties provided in our U.S. Constitution only apply to human beings, not bloodless corporations that seek to undermine and make a mockery of our democracy and Constitution. ********** [173342:072914] L.A., Weedsport, NY As long as corporations can VOTE, why should I bother. Please overturn Citizens United. ********** [213133:072814] M.T., Stoddard, NH Let's return to democratic government by removing corporate money from our elections. ********** [055042:072814] G.Z., Brooklyn, MI I thought democracy was dead until I found out about this bill. Please work to overturn "Citizens United" and make America worth fighting for again. ********** [000736:072814] A.H., Duxbury, MA May you see your way to support H.J. Res.119. as our Representative to our Democratic Republic. thank you. ********** [122519:072714] d.v., West Palm Beach, FL No one can live on a minimum wage salary. ********** [103356:072714] K.M., Taunton, MA Thank you for being a true "Massachusetts Liberal," locally known as being of common sense! ********** [155704:072614] F.P., Westbrook, CT Citizens United - from it's Orwellian name to it's total surrender to corruption of our government which is SUPOSED to be for the People. Guess what Corporation are legal entities to let the owners of a corp keep their ill-gotten profits wht their corporate entity bre3aks loawsw or otherwise harms people through actions. ********** [105917:072614] N.G., Palm Desert, CA I had asked you this question at a fundraiser, before you were elected, about if you would support a constitutional amendment to overturn the 2010 citizens united supreme court decision. I hope you now have enough evidence that it must be done, and I hope you sign on. Representatives like you face the bigger threat because you are not in the billionare's pockets. I want to see you reelected, in the hope that you will also fight for the people to do 2 things: Remove all this monetary bribery from elections (money will not equal free speech) AND deem that corporations are not people and corporate abuses must be settled in trials by juries, not by secret courts where judges favor the corporations. Right now legislation is blocked for this very reason, because of MONEY. I won't contribute to any candidate right now because I can't compete with the likes of the Koch brothers. Please support this--this problem with money is corrupting both sides of the isle and this will stop the filibusters. ********** [092238:072614] S.E., Milwaukee, WI It's pretty simple. A corporation is not a person. ********** [061110:072614] M.P., Ketchum, ID It is critical that we stop allowing corporate funds for candidate support in elections, even indirectly. ********** [062636:072514] M.P., Laguna Hills, CA Please get on board and cosponsor H.J. Res. 119 to Overturn Citizens United Now. We need to help the Supreme Court understand that corporations and human beings are different types of entities, that the Constitution was written, in part, to protect the human and civil rights of individuals, not of corporations (which existed in very different form back in the 18th century). Thank you. ********** [210633:072414] A.C., Ketchum, ID I urge you please to cosponsor H. J. Res.199 for the good of the people of Idaho. To allow the very wealthy special interests to use their unlimited resources to fight the will of the people is disastrous to democracy. ********** [170706:072414] P.R., Sherman, TX Citizen's United is the wrong way to go. Although corporations have some status as people in business law, they are NOT citizens of this great country. Therefore they don't deserve a vote, and pouring billions into a campaign is the same thing as having what amounts to a vote, and a vote more powerful than any individual citizen has. It's ANTI American. Representative Hall, please sponsor or at least support the House bill. If you're one of my Senators, then please support the bill. Sincerely, Patrick Reardon ********** [125045:072414] N.T., Northfield, MN Make it a priority to be a cosponsor of H.J.Res.119, in order to overturn CITIZENS UNITED now. ********** [114201:072414] B.B., Sacramento, CA Slow to come to the plate but hope we can hold our own and hit a home run. ********** [094121:072414] J.C., Camas, WA Corporations are commercial enterprises and DO NOT have the same rights as individuals. None of the founders ever intended for commercial entities to be given this kind of power. You must do every thing possible to overturn the abomination of the Citizens United decision. ********** [200227:072314] S.R., Soquel, CA Respectfull listen to those who respond. You signed up for this in the first place, make us proud of you. ********** Go Back
