Breaking: Hillary Clinton just endorsed a constitutional amendment to roll back Citizens United as the start of her campaign.

HRC spoke in a matter of fact way, but constitutional amendments are a fairly ambitious way to do policy – unusual for mainstream candidates

Hillary has started with a strong showing against a feared rival: the First Amendment.

You mean she endorsed a constitutional amendment to roll back the First Amendment. https://t.co/uQY1hAEp3L

She wants a constitutional amendment that null and voids the 1st? Because that's what Citizens United was about. https://t.co/KUQutsMjxg

Gutting the First Amendment…sounds about right https://t.co/QzlAGZB99T #tcot #1A

If this is the same measure proposed in the Senate last year, it is literally tyrannical http://t.co/LYtR5OTvYH https://t.co/MYIFWYkMp1

Reminder: Dems' proposed constitutional amendment doesn't roll back CU. It eliminates all 1A protections for published political speech.

@lachlan And empowers every state government to regulate political speech anywhere in the U.S.

Under the amendment proposed last year, Congress could vote to shut down a newspaper. Or, perhaps more likely, a cable news outlet.

"And we need to fix the dysfunctional political system and get unaccountable money out of it once and for all…"

— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) April 14, 2015

Hillary Clinton exact line: Get unaccountable money out of politics, "once and for all, even if it takes a constitutional amendment."

But will rely on Super PACs and dark $$ to get elected… https://t.co/sWu7jfcFcU

@AriMelber I don't suppose this will stop the Hillary Super PAC from accepting millions from undisclosed sources.

Are foreign 'donations' considered accountable money? https://t.co/MMYWJz61NO

— BT (@back_ttys) April 14, 2015

Because her money from Saudi Arabia is accountable. https://t.co/nxOmM7K7JC

— Sean Agnew (@seanagnew) April 14, 2015

All of Hillary's money is unaccountable.Geez.
