End Citizens United Celebrates Passage of Michigan Proposal 2

End Citizens United (ECU) President Tiffany Muller issued the following statement celebrating the passage of Michigan's Proposal 2, a landmark ballot initiative that restricts political contributions from regulated utilities and major government contractors and strengthens transparency requirements:

“Michiganders took a powerful stand against pay-to-play politics and for a government that is more accountable to the people. By passing Proposal 2, Michigan voters directly rebuked the corruption that allows corporations to bankroll politicians while profiting from lucrative government contracts and favorable treatment. This is a monumental victory and a major step forward in the fight to rein in the corporate spending unleashed by Citizens United. We applaud the organizers on the ground who made this possible and are proud of the role we played in helping get Proposal 2 passed.”

ECU helped raise awareness and support for Proposal 2 throughout the cycle with grassroots organizing. ECU President Tiffany Muller was interviewed for a More Perfect Union video promoting the ballot measure, and on Substack, ECU interviewed the co-chair and advocated for Proposal 2.
