    Finally, some good fucking news. Hopefully this takes hold and gathers support in other states.

      Contact your state legislatures! https://www.ncsl.org/legislative-leaders/state-legislative-leaders

      In a similar vein some states have passed bills that require their electoral votes to go to the presidential candidate that wins the popular vote.

    The power to create and limit corporations has been the exclusive power of States for 200 years and upheld multiple times in SCOTUS.
