About the Lecture
Tune in to a presentation by Move to Amend's Jan Rein to learn how the Supreme Court since the late 1880s has hijacked the U.S. constitution to invent so-called corporate constitutional rights that allow corporations to put profit over people and the planet. Through real case law examples, the presentation will illustrate how this pernicious, court-created CCR doctrine harms individuals, communities, entire ecosystems, and threatens everything we hold dear. Move to Amend's proposed constitutional amendment will abolish this illegitimate doctrine and enable 'we the people' to end corporate rule and create a Democracy that serves the people, not corporate interests.
