@vermont The 2010 Citizens United decision by the US Supreme Court has allowed corporate "dark" money to buy political influence for an unnamed few. Prof Robert Reich suggests how we can act locally to nullify this decision. I urge Vermonters to explore this straightforward constitutionally sound solution. https://open.substack.com/pub/robertreich/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united
The US supreme court just agreed to hear a case whether bribery should be legal. An Ohio politician who was convicted of accepting millions in bribes says that he delivered the legislation that they paid him to deliver. He argues politicians should be allowed to accept payment for legislation. The US Supreme Court thought the arguments were reasonable and decided to hear the case.
