Ultimate Civics

Our goal is to help build a popular movement to support passage of a constitutional amendment that reinstates the primacy of human rights over corporate rights. We work to: inform people of the need to abolish corporate persons; encourage and assist citizen-driven efforts to pass ordinances; and coalesce these efforts into passing state laws to trigger a national movement for a constitutional amendment.
