*Fellow anti-corporate personhood rights activist Ellen -- *

Please press the link below and sign this petition to Representative Jared
Huffman.

Rep. Huffman is currently supporting *HJR 25* in order to correct "the
damage done by Citizen's United."  *HJR 25* proposes a constitutional
amendment stating that campaign funds can be regulated by both States and
Federal laws.  It totally ignores the corporate personhood issue.  Citizens
United was only the culmination of a century of failed campaign finance
regulations.  If regulating campaign finance failed for over 100 years,
what makes Rep. Huffman so eager to amend the Constitution with a proven
failed policy?

Yet, the majority of Huffman's constituency in District 2 are strongly in
favor of eliminating all corporate personhood rights under the
Constitution.  Conglomerates of capital (corporations) should have
obligations and responsibilities according to states where they are
chartered, *but should NOT have inalienable human rights listed in the
Constitution*.  Those are for natural persons only, NOT for artificial
entities or fictional persons.

Let's remind Rep. Huffman what his constituency wants on the issue of
corporations having the Free Speech right to spend unlimited money on
campaigns and the Free Speech right to NOT SPEAK and overturn BGH and GMO
labeling laws.  Let him know that Corporations must NOT have Rights under
the Constitution.  Together, let's join our voices and tell Jared Huffman
to cosponsor *H.J.Res. 29, *the* We the People Amendment*.
