Citizens Resolution
Overview
The Citizens Resolution task force is a group whose mission is to get a Boston City Council resolution passed opposing Citizen's United and calling for a constitutional amendment to get corporate money out of politics. The task force is focused specifically on this mission, as a subset to the larger campaign to overturn Citizen's United.
