Like Corporate Personhood? Like Citizens United v. FEC?

Corporations have hijacked our government. We need to take it back. An important tool in the hijacking was corporate personhood. Ending it will help restore democracy.

David Cobb is an organizer and rousing speaker for Move to Amend (and a former Green Party Presidential Candidate). Come see him speak about corporate personhood and how to end it. There will be a lengthy Q & A.

Free and open to the public.

Palo Alto is in Santa Clara County, where corporate personhood began.
