Bill > S53

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to clarify that corporations are not considered people and can be regulated by the legislature, meaning the rights granted to human inhabitants of the Commonwealth do not apply to corporations, limited liability companies, or other artificial entities, and that money spent in political campaigns should not be considered free speech, allowing the legislature to regulate the raising and spending of money for elections and ballot measures to protect the political process, with an explicit exception that this amendment will not restrict freedom of the press.
