Volunteers across the U.S. will lead the charge on the judiciary that created — and continues to expand — corporate personhood rights and again call for local and state resolutions demanding a constitutional remedy.		STREET THEATER MONOPOLY SKIT -

Seeking creatives to work on this initiative. Needed:
			</p><p>Writers to help develop the concept into an even more hilarious poignant skit;
			</p><p>actors and actresses including ideally a professional auctioneer;
			</p><p>artists to assist with costuming and props;
			</p><p>photographers and filmmakers to document the action;
			</p><p>any and all interested folks who want to get their creative juices flowing and are willing to play a role even as simple as carrying a sign as a backdrop.
			</p><p>A grant application is in the works for funding to make this piece a truly awesome experience that you won't want to miss! There will be several performances on January 20 in conjunction with nationwide events organized by Move To Amend: "[http://movetoamend.org/occupythecourts Occupy the Courts]."

Please contact Jenn via jennjoy75 at gmail dot com if you would like to be included in the planning but are unable to attend this meeting or if you have questions~~/~~need more info.~~		<ul><li> RALLY - This would require a main stage and a program that would include a mix of relevant speakers, musicians, comedians and entertainment. There will be space for groups like Rootstrikers.org, Move to Amend, Common Cause, League of Women Voters and even the opposition to come and lobby. The purpose of the rally is to create an interactive and educational event where people can have an opportunity to learn how money in politics negatively affects our lives and how WE CAN FIX IT!
			</li></ul>
			<ul><li> SUMMIT - the summit would be a bicameral convention with one house working toward local reforms and the other working toward federal reforms. There is consensus among a large number of people that an amendment would be beneficial to reform. There are six amendments and counting sitting in Congress now and several other groups proposing their own. Let's put all of those ideas together, and see if we can make them one.
