28th Amendment wins in Alabama!

December 13, 2017

Published By American Promise

The 28th Amendment was on the ballot last night in Alabama, and won. Senator-elect Doug Jones becomes Alabama’s first member of Congress in support of a 28th Amendment to overturn the disastrous Citizens United decision. We congratulate Senator-elect Jones and the people of Alabama, and look forward to working together to get the 28th Amendment passed and ratified.

Shocked? We're not!
