I, _________, hereby call for the drafting and ratification of a constitutional amendment to Slash the Cash in our elections—an amendment that confronts the influence of dark money and the corrupt spending practices of corporations, nonprofits, and the ultra-wealthy to restore intellectual honesty in government and accountability to the people alone.
1. Taking a stand against the practice of any and all entities influencing the conscious or unconscious behavior of incumbents or candidates for public office through unlimited and undisclosed political spending, including through direct donations to political campaigns via intermediaries that are not required to disclose their donors, and through independent expenditures intended to boost preferred candidate(s). 2. Showing support for the creation and ratification of an Amendment to the U.S. Constitution to address this practice. 3. Signaling to incumbents and candidates for public office that you stand against unlimited and undisclosed spending in American elections, and that their decision to accept campaign money or assistance from entities that do not disclose their donors, along with their stance on this practice, will play a crucial factor into your decision to support them. 1. Expressing alignment with or support for any particular partisan ideology or group. 2. Expressing a specific view on how to solve this problem legislatively, outside of it being ratified as an Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. 3. Endorsing the religious, political, or ideological views of any other particular person, entity, or group that also supports Slash the Cash as defined by these tenets. {Your name will be here}BY SIGNING THE PETITION AND ENDORSING SLASH THE CASH:
