In tandem with the End Corruption Now legislative package, Congressman Joe Neguse is the lead House author and sponsor of a proposed amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would overturn Citizens United v. FEC.
Lead efforts to overturn Citizens United and preserve congressional and state authority to set reasonable campaign finance limits, including reducing dark money.
Occurrences
Evidence
Neguse’s office said he leads the End Corruption Now coalition and, one year after launching it, the members were still pressing the same anti-corruption package; the release also says the agenda is meant to combat a broken campaign-finance system and keep the fight going.
The official priorities page says Neguse is the lead House author and sponsor of the Citizens Over Corporations Amendment, which would overturn Citizens United, let Congress and states set reasonable limits on political spending, and eliminate dark money.
Assessments
The promise was framed as leading efforts, not personally delivering a constitutional amendment or court reversal. The evidence shows Neguse was the lead House author and sponsor of the Citizens Over Corporations Amendment and publicly led the End Corruption Now coalition pushing the same anti-corruption and campaign-finance agenda during his term. That is strong evidence he fulfilled the effort-based commitment, even though the broader policy outcome was not enacted.
