He wants to limit free speech with a new amendment?
Why not just repeal the 1st Amendment?
It might if it had been introduced last year. I doubt it goes far in the Republican controlled house, as they are really big on corporate donations.

Thanks for your support of ending Citizens United.Why? Democrats get more "dark money" than any political party in the world. That's the only way they can steal elections.
It was.It might if it had been introduced last year.
Prove it. Why would Repubs block an end to dark money if Dems received the majority of it?Why? Democrats get more "dark money" than any political party in the world.
Then it definitely won't get anywhere, now.It was.

CONGRESSMAN SCHIFF INTRODUCES CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT TO OVERTURN CITIZENS UNITED
Today, Congressman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) introduced a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision, and once again allow for reasonable restrictions on corporate campaign contributions and other spending.
In 2010, the Supreme Court ruled in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission that corporations and special interest groups could spend nearly unlimited funds on election campaigns. In the decade since, outside groups spent more than $4.4 billion in federal elections – nearly $1 billion of which was untraceable “dark money” – with some of the biggest contributors coming from Wall Street, the pharmaceutical industry, and the NRA.
“Thanks to one disastrous ruling, wealthy megadonors, corporations, and special interest groups have been able to influence elections when that power should belong with the American people. This has eroded faith in the government’s ability to deliver for the people and their families,” said Schiff. “Dark money should have no place in our democracy. It is time to return power to the people, and overturn Citizens United once and for all.”

Money isn't free speech.it’s going nowhere. Unlike Shifty the american people don’t want their free speech limited
Neither will campaign finance reform as long as Repubs have the power to block it.One doesn't need an Amendment to change how we fund campaigns. Again, he knows an amendment will never pass.
