Stop BP’s Corporate Abuse
No matter the issue, you can be certain that giant corporations are abusing our democracy for their own gain. The result? ‘We the people’ are in deep water when it comes to protecting ourselves and our country from corporate harms.
There’s no better example of corporate abuse than BP’s Deepwater Horizon disaster, and they haven’t even started spending ‘big money’ on candidate campaigns yet. Rest assured, that will happen when, and if, Congress gets serious about plugging the holes in the regulatory process, and passing legislation to prevent more disasters like this one. The oil boys will land like a sledgehammer on any candidate calling for regulation -- or an end to offshore drilling -- as they exploit the Supreme Court’s recent Citizens United decision, which allows unlimited campaign spending by corporations.
