Mission
Formed in September 2009, Move to Amend is a coalition of hundreds of organizations and hundreds of thousands of individuals committed to social and economic justice, ending corporate rule, and building a vibrant democracy that is genuinely accountable to the people, not corporate interests.
We are calling for an amendment to the US Constitution to unequivocally state that inalienable rights belong to human beings only, and that money is not a form of protected free speech under the First Amendment and can be regulated in political campaigns.
Move To Amend Statement of Values

Accountability and responsibility, both personally and organizationally
Transparency
Community
Movement building
Dedication to Move to Amend mission, goals and tactics
Commitment to anti-oppression within ourselves, communities, work places, policies, and representation
