Wyoming Promise Meeting with Jeff Clements Wyoming Promise Meeting with Jeff Clements Saturday, 25 September 2021 \| 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm Jeff Clements, the President of American Promise, will be visiting Laramie to update the community on efforts nationwide to secure an amendment to the United States Constitution to overturn the disastrous Citizens United opinion. Citizens United gave the go-ahead to large corporations and SuperPACs to flood our political system with unaccountable money. We need a Constitutional amendment to overturn that decision and restore political power to the people, not well-funded special interest groups and wealthy donors who now can legally bribe politicians to do their bidding. So far, 22 states have called for an amendment, and Wyoming Promise has been working with American Promise to get Wyoming on to the list of states calling for this amendment. Jeff will update us about what has been going on nationwide since Wyoming Promise obtained over 20,000 signatures of Wyoming voters during a 2016-17 drive to put this issue on the Wyoming state ballot. He will talk with us about how we can convince our legislators to call for the needed amendment, based on successes that American Promise has had in other states since the 2016-17 petition drive. • •
