The Corporate Power Reset That Makes Citizens United Irrelevant
Context: “In the republic’s early years, states exercised that power with care. They granted charters on a case-by-case basis and drew corporate powers narrowly. That changed in the mid-1800s, when states began offering general incorporation by default, no longer paying close attention to the powers they were handing out. And that has been the status quo ever since.”
Why it’s relevant right now:
From reader view — “The law, which takes effect July 1, 2027, redefines corporations in a way that precludes spending on elections. A volunteer group in Montana is gathering signatures in hopes of putting a similar issue to voters in November.”
Major outlets have yet to mention this as far as I know. Don’t let all the distractions from the Epstein files mean this gets swept under the rug too.
