(Reposting because dang I can’t format tables on Reddit very well)(not perfect…Let me know if info here is wrong or needs updates!)

Anyways here’s the list of Montana Plan initiatives! These will defang Citizens United state by state and each has to take a path unique to the state. TEI is great but hasn’t kept their list very updated. Summary of what’s going on here.

To do: please contact STATE legislators to support these initiatives, or if you’re in a state without one, voice your support of similar initiatives.

Also there’s another, HJR 31, to amend the state constitution to prohibit corporate contributions and expenditures in local elections. This is part of the bigger “Montana Plan” each state is taking on, which Hawaii successfully enacted. I seem to get conflicting info on whether that one has died, anyone able to clarify?

Not sure why Christie Mullin, the wife of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, is on this commission…

I’m just trying to understand this—I’ve moved around a lot and other states seem to use municipal or county planning divisions to make decisions on where warehousing or mining developments go. Here in WA it seems to be up to a single “unbiased” lawyer with no environmental background. Help me understand why?

SB 2471 SD2 HD2 CD2 RELATING TO THE POWERS OF ARTIFICIAL PERSONS (Corporate Donations)
Act 011 (SB 2471 SD2 HD2 CD2) restricts certain political spending activities by corporations and other “artificial persons” under Hawaiʻi law by redefining and limiting the powers granted to those entities. Political action committees will remain governed by existing campaign finance laws within the state, but they will not be able to spend any money received from corporations as a result of this Act.

This bill is intended to strengthen transparency, reduce the influence of corporate money in elections and help restore public trust in Hawaiʻi’s democratic process. (Act 011 takes effect July 1, 2027.)
