Our goal is to build a popular movement and pass a constitutional amendment to reinstate the primacy of human rights over corporate rights.

We are working to:

Inform people of the need to abolish corporate persons.

Encourage and assist citizen-driven efforts to pass ordinances.

Coalesce these efforts into passing state laws to trigger a national movement for a constitutional amendment.

Stay informed
