| Citizens United to End Political Bribery (CUEPB) is a Working Group formed to pursue goals related to getting corporate money out of politics. We will focus on realistic actions in Massachusetts, but will also extend our efforts to nationwide politics when we can. This wiki page and its subsidiary pages will be our place to collect information and discuss ideas before bringing proposals to Occupy Boston General Assembly. Everything here should be considered a draft, unless conspicuously labeled otherwise. To participate, come to one of our scheduled meetings or comment on the discussion tab for a page. You can also edit a page, but we'd like to know who's involved, so please introduce yourself somewhere in some fashion. | | #REDIRECT [[Citizens United to End Political Bribery]] |
