Re: RESPOND ASAP - DAR language

1. I am in favor of INCLUDING THE TRIGGER in the DAR.  We can argue that we are presenting TWO PATHS to success to overrule Citizens United, and acknowledge that the Congressional approach, while preferable in the face of "runaway fears', is not likely to be possible in the next 2 or 4 or possibly 8 years (heaven help us!)

2. What about using "inalienable constitutional rights"?

Cheers,

Hank

Here are the notes from the legislative work plan:
1/21/2021 would be the trigger date. 11-year anniversary of Citizens United. Propose trigger to the sponsor. Charlie suggests remove "political" from "inalienable political rights" in the first RESOLVED clause of DAR.
 
I would also add that we must add in Rhode Island to the list of states we intend to align with (near the bottom of page 2).
 
Therefore, please vote on the following:
1.      Include the trigger provision. I'm not sure why we would offer this after our meeting with Busch. They didn't raise it. I think Wylie should try to reach Jeremy as he has not responded to my e-mail, and I'm not sure he received it.  _____ Yes      _____ No
 
2.     Remove "p0litical" from "inalienable political rights."  _____ Yes      _____ No
