I expect you to stand with the people of this country and with democracy itself by championing the approach Hawaii just adopted in Senate Bill 2471, signed into law on May 14, 2026. Hawaii's law does not fight Citizens United on First Amendment grounds. It recognizes that corporations exist only because state law creates them, and that the powers granted under a corporate charter do not have to include political spending. A corporation that spends on Hawaii elections forfeits its charter privileges as a matter of law, loses limited liability, can be barred from state contracts, stripped of tax-exempt status, and have its authority to operate revoked. Out-of-state corporations doing business in Hawaii are subject to the same penalties. The mechanism is elegant, constitutionally sound, and long overdue. I expect you to publicly endorse this approach, call on the Wyoming State Legislature to enact the same law here, and advance every available federal measure consistent with the principle that artificial persons hold only the powers we choose to grant them. A supermajority of Americans want Citizens United reversed. Wyoming should be the next state to take a serious step toward doing it. Tell me where you stand.
