Groups Serve Big Money Super PAC with "People's Indictment" for Trying to Buy Our Democracy

Submitted by John Papagiannis on Fri, 06/22/2012 - 15:52

Karl Rove's "American Crossroads" super PAC, the Koch brothers, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce have a plan to funnel $1 billion of corporate money into buying rhe White House and Congress in November.

On Wednesday, Public Campaign Action Fund, along with Campaign for America's Future, and other groups from the labor, reform, and 99% communities sent a message to Rove and other big money players by marching from the Take Back America Conference to the Crossroads GPS headquarters and protesting outside the offices. The groups issued Rove a "people's indictment" for trying to buy U.S. elections.

Check out a video of the action below:
