On June 1st at 6pm, Manasota Move to Amend representatives spoke out during the public comment period of the Sarasota City Commission. We called on our Commissioners to pass a resolution stating that Money is not Speech and Corporations are not People. We made quite a strong impression with our blaze of red t-shirts in the audience.
Over 600 communities have passed resolutions in support of Move to Amend; 16 states have signed on; and 300 communities have actually placed it on the ballot for a vote of the people. Everywhere it has appeared on the ballot – whether it be Madison, WI, Salt Lake City, UT or the state of Montana – it has passed by an overwhelming majority. Let's add Sarasota to the list!
