Hawai'i just became the first state in the nation to fight back against Citizens United in a real, legally grounded way — and I want you to follow their lead. Governor Josh Green signed S.B. 2471 into law, rewriting state corporate charter codes to explicitly strip corporations of the authority to spend in elections. The legal foundation is solid: states charter corporations, states can limit what those corporations do. Corporate money has warped our democracy. Corporations spent $1.4 billion in the 2024 presidential cycle alone, and Citizens United opened the door to all of it. This approach won't fix everything — wealthy individuals can still spend freely — but it directly targets the corporate flood of cash that drowns out ordinary voters. Similar bills have already been introduced in 15 states. Please introduce or co-sponsor this legislation now.
