April 22 is the anniversary of Earth Day. The first Earth Day, April 22, 1970 was celebrated by more than 20,000,000 Americans. The health of the world’s population and its diverse live forms were endangered by rampant pollution in the air, in the water, and in the soil. The growing movement prompted Congress to take action. Over the next 10 years Congress passed laws to address pollution. All these legislative gains to protect our health are now being threatened by the Trump administration.
The Supreme Court’s decision in Citizens United opened the floodgates to campaign spending by giant corporations. This upended campaign spending limitations. The court reasoned that corporations are people who have First Amendment rights. However, there is a way to end the influx of money to elect candidates or promote an agenda. States can pass laws that limit election spending and hold corporations accountable under those laws. Montana has passed such a bill, and 9 states have already introduced similar bills.
Our country was founded on the principles of a Representative Democracy where the citizens eligible to vote would get together from time to time to elect the Representatives who would then go to a certain place to form a congress and conduct the business of the government for the people.
Donald Trump and Texas Republicans are making an unprecedented power grab to steal congressional seats and rig the 2026 election before voting even begins. Other Republican states are following suit. To counter this new wave of Republican gerrymandering across the country, Governor Newsom has proposed a redistricting ballot measure for California, the “Election Rigging Response Act”. This is our chance to lead the nation in defending Democracy.
