John,

It's been over five years since the Supreme Court issued its decision in the Citizens United case. Five years since they swung open the gates and let special interest groups stampede over our elections. 

That's five years way, way too long in my book. 

Dark money groups have spent millions upon millions of dollars to influence elections since 2010. It has to stop. 

We want to pass a constitutional amendment to reverse the effects of Citizens United. It's not a simple process, but we can do it -- as long as we have folks like you fighting with us. 

Join my colleagues and me in calling for a constitutional amendment to end Citizens United. Add your name to our petition today.

It will take a huge effort to corral dark money groups. Especially the ones backed by powerful figures like the Koch brothers or Karl Rove. 

But our democracy wasn't designed for them. It was designed for the people, by the people. 

And it's up to us -- the people -- to take it back. 

Add your voice to mine and thousands of others. Together, we can stop the damage Citizens United has caused.

Thank you for signing on today. I appreciate it.
