Your View: Amendment needed to override ruling

Dave Jackson, Mankato The Free Press

MANKATO —

 

The Supreme Court has decided that a corporation (foreign or domestic) has a “voice” in our electoral system.

When a multi-nation or multi-person corporation speaks with its money, who really is speaking? Is it the CEO, the corporate board, or the consensus of its employees?

None of this passes the common-sense test. No doubt, a constitutional amendment to override the court's decision is necessary and we need to begin the process now.

Americans — Republicans, Democrats and Independents — must speak out as one loud and clear voice to override this Supreme Court’s error in judgment.
