Examining a Constitutional Amendment to Restore Democracy to the American People

The Senate Judiciary Committee will hold hearings on June 3rd 2014 entitled, "Examining a Constitutional Amendment to Restore Democracy to the American People". This historic hearing will take testimony from constitutional scholars and experts on the need to amend the Constitution to overturn cases like Citizens United v. FEC, McCutcheon v. FEC, and related cases. The hearings will be chaired by Senator Leahy and will be a "full committee" hearing, featuring senators who strongly support, and those who strongly oppose, the amendment strategy.
