I join the overwhelming majority of Americans to demand an amendment to the United States Constitution to end the domination of big money in politics and give voice to all Americans.
 
I will stand with all Americans, without regard to party or other differences, and urge all candidates and elected officials to do the same, in order to pass and ratify such a constitutional amendment as soon as possible.

Our Promise

Our constitutional solution strengthens our shared values.

American Promise is a cross-partisan organization committed to a singular vision: ratifying the For Our Freedom Amendment to empower the states and Congress to set reasonable limits on political spending, ensuring every American voice counts.

Freedom in America
Freedom in America

We Believe Freedom is American

America was founded on freedom. Each of us is free to believe as we think right, to strive and grow, to take care of our families, to speak our minds, and to protect our way of life.
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
Ronald Reagan

When the decisions that affect our lives are determined by a powerful few, making rules that do not serve us, our families, our communities, or our nation — we are not free.

We are here to restore the American promise of self-determination, opportunity, and the ability to create a better future for all.

Join us – we will amend the constitution For Our Freedom.

Equality in America

We Believe Equality
is American

America was founded on equality. All are created equal, endowed with unalienable rights. This does not mean equal material or physical wellbeing, nor assured outcomes—no one can guarantee that—but an equality of rights of every mortal human being, with no person or class ordained to govern others.
Our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Abraham Lincoln

Representative government of the people, with checks and balances, and free and fair elections, is the American way—not aristocracy, monarchism, dictatorship or one-party rule. When those with massive concentrated wealth can use that wealth to control elections, candidates and government policy, pushing aside the voice and interests of most Americans, we do not have equal rights or representative self-government.

We will amend the constitution for equal rights.

Service in America

We Believe Service
is American

To keep the promise of freedom, Americans have always answered the call to serve. We embrace and welcome our responsibility as citizens—to ourselves and families, our communities, to each other, and our future. Every day, Americans get up and answer this call.
Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on Earth.
Muhammad Ali

When the elite donor class turns state and local elections into an ugly and divisive contest of the two parties, more and more Americans who would offer honest and fair service stay away, and neighbor is turned against neighbor.

As citizens, in all of our states and communities, every American has something to offer. It’s time to end pay-to-play politics and give the power and voice back to We The People.

Invention in America

We Believe Invention
is American

Free people are creative people. Americans have always sought to solve problems and shape the future we want through new invention and innovation. American innovation has brought the world advances in business, governance, the arts, medicine, technology, and much more.
For good ideas and true innovation, you need human interaction, conflict, argument, debate.
CEO Margaret Heffernan

When corruption creates a top-heavy system where the largest players use concentrated wealth to shift the rules in their favor, trust and freedom break down, and innovation and creativity is stifled, whether in the economy, arts, science, or across our lives. We will amend the constitution to protect our freedom to create, invent and try anew.

We have the strength, shared values, and the responsibility to take back our right to self-govern; it’s up to us to make a lasting change.

Competition in America

We Believe Competition
is American

Let’s face it, Americans like to win. And a fair chance to compete benefits everyone. We rise to the challenge, we get better outcomes and a stronger economy, and everyone has a fair shot.
The question is, do you want rules that favor the weak competitors? That’s generally what lobbying efforts are about. The strong competitors do not have to undermine regulation; the weak competitors do.
Peter Schwartz

But in our political system, a few big donors call the shots. Turning Congress into a millionaire’s club. The two parties rig the rules to prevent competition and choice, and the biggest corporations in the world can “pay-to-play”, tilting the playing field against small business every time.

We will amend the Constitution to end uncompetitive, corrupt pay-to-play politics, level the playing field, and renew the American Promise for all.

For Our Freedom Amendment

These are our American promises – shared by Americans across the political spectrum. What are we going to do about it? American Promise has a solution: it’s cross-partisan, it’s wildly popular - it’s the For Our Freedom Amendment.

End of Year Giving

This Is Our Moment 

Did you know that $20 billion was spent on the last election?

We are the only democracy on the planet where this is considered normal. We have the power to turn the page — and restore some sanity to our country.

Can we count on you to help us protect our elections from out-of-control money?
