A Move to Amend protest against citizens united

Today political advocacy group Move to Amend will be holding a nationwide series of rallies calling for President Obama to sign an executive order requiring full disclosure of political contributions from corporations. We talk to Rae Claire Johnson of Move to Amend Pinellas on how corporate involvement in politics can pose conflicts of interests and the benefits of greater transparency regarding corporate donations.The group will be holding a rally tonight at Clearwater Beach tonight near Pier 60 at 7:30 pm.

Then we see how well-read our listeners are with a political aptitude quiz written by Gail Collins for the New York Times. The questions cover the life and times of Texas Senator and potential Republican Presidential Candidate Ted Cruz.
