What the AFT 2121 and Peralta Are Doing to Fight "Dark Money"

"Dark Money" as a documentary is good, and so is the book by Jane Mayer, but of course dark money as the way this country is being run is NOT good.

Last Friday I saw the documentary "Dark Money," showing how people in Montana held corporations accountable for using Citizens United and The Right to Work (for Less) illegally, truly conspiring to get into office people who would do the will of the corporations instead of the the will of the citizens of Montana.

That motivated me to join the AFT 2121 and Peralta yesterday in a weekend drive. We went door-to-door to get teachers to sign up to opt into the Union so that we will be strong enough to fight back against corporate electioneering and other undemocratic acts. Here are some of us from AFT 2121 and Peralta as well as a dedicated teacher who came out on crutches to speak with us.

Here's a good article on the case in Montana:
