/*Occupy the Courts: a Phenomenal Success!*/

Dear Richard,

Thanks to you and many others, our *“Occupy the Courts” events on 
January 20 turned out better than we ever imagined!* Events protesting 
Citizens United took place at 138 federal courthouses, in parks and 
plazas, and at the Supreme Court.

Far too numerous to mention here (including over 1200 print/online 
articles and 450+ TV/radio clips!), please check here for a round-up of 
the news stories 
<http://salsa3.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=rUQRu8wCul2Qg%2BAvBnkMVppPI5MlhMW3>.

We were able to stage protests at federal courthouses in 48 states, and 
bring thousands upon thousands of our fellow citizens out on a week-day, 
in the middle of winter.

It was a measure of the *great grassroots organizing going on* within 
this coalition.

Amending the Constitution to abolish corporate personhood requires us to 
work in our own communities to build support for it. “Occupy the Courts” 
show us that when we all pull together, we succeed. So *pat yourself on 
the back for a job well done!*

Going forward, *Move to Amend will continue to lead the fight against 
corporate personhood and “money is speech.”* In order to do so, and meet 
the growing demand for information and resources, we have recently 
upgraded our database to better serve you.

You’ve probably already noticed that our emails look a little different. 
Our new system has improved our communications ability tenfold and 
offers a lot more flexibility — but it does come at an expense.

“Occupy the Courts” taught us that when we are able to focus attention 
on our mission instead of on raising money, *we can accomplish great 
things*.

*If every Move to Amend member contributed **just $10 a month 
<http://salsa3.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=ucm%2Fn9xK%2FnJ8%2Fm%2FF6JkLBppPI5MlhMW3>*(the 
cost of a movie ticket) we could focus our attention entirely on the 
Movement to Amend and passing the 28th Amendment
