0062 (Anti-Citizens United Research)
Q62. Using the course page on Corporate Persons as your jumping off point, search for information on the current state of the "overturn citizens united" or "anti-corporate person" campaign in each of your states. The first installment of the assignment is a very quick overview of each state.
You might include
- Name and party of current governor
- Makeup of state legislature
- Party makeup of congressional delegation
- Weblinks to any Occupy organizations in the state?
- Do any of the national efforts appear to have a base in the state?
- Is there a homegrown effort.
In all cases, document as much as you can with URLS, etc.
